Update: Here is a voter guide on the local candidates, including bio information and stances on issues.
You can now cast a vote in the April 7 election.
In-person absentee voting is open, meaning you can vote at South Milwaukee City Hall each business day between now and Thursday, April 2, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. City Hall will be closed on Good Friday, April 3. However, appointments can be made in advance with the city clerk to vote absentee on that day between 3 and 5 p.m. by calling 768-7499.
You don’t need a reason to vote this way — you can simply show up and request a ballot and cast it right there.
Learn more on the city’s elections web page, and you can also see sample ballots on the main page of the city website.
