"Get ready to vote in four big elections"

[midnight]

"In the Feb. 16 primary, voters will select the two top candidates for Wisconsin Supreme Court as well as for any local and county races with more than two contenders.
On April 5 we will elect the final winner for those contests and also vote for our favorite presidential candidate to be the nominee of his or her party.
The fall partisan primary election will be held Aug. 9 for Congress and the Wisconsin Legislature. In districts that are heavily Democratic or Republican, the primary election is particularly decisive.
On Nov. 8 we will elect the next president along with our state and federal representatives."


"If you need assistance with voter registration or photo ID, contact your local League of Women Voters or the League’s state office at 608-256-0827."


"Wisconsin is known for high voter turnout, compared to other states. Even so, a relatively small number of eligible citizens vote in our elections. At the local, state and national levels, government affects many aspects of our everyday lives. Don’t let a small number of citizens choose your representatives. Take a little time now to be sure you are prepared, and then vote in every election."

1. Thanks midnight. Just went and registered in my new hometown a couple weeks ago.

I'm ready.

Any recommendations on our supreme court candidates?

5. Not Bradley!

Seriously, I am still torn between the two other candidates (both have been to the Milwaukee Democratic Party meetings and both spoke well). Judge Kloppenburg has the experience of having very nearly won a Supreme Court seat in 2011, judicial experience now on the Court of Appeals, and years in the attorney general's office. On the other hand, Judge Joe Donald has been a circuit court judge for many years, and it would be nice to have another African American justice since Justice Butler was defamed and defeated by Gabelman.
