In-Person Absentee Voting Begins Tuesday For Spring Election

In-person Absentee Voting, during which residents can cast early Spring Election ballots, will begin Tuesday, March 22, said Kenosha County Clerk Regi Bachochin.

Any qualified elector may choose to cast an in-person absentee ballot. A qualified elector is any U.S. citizen, who will be 18 years of age or older on Election Day, who has resided in the ward or municipality where they wish to vote for at least 28 consecutive days before the election.

The elector must also be registered in order to receive an absentee ballot. Proof of identification must be provided before an absentee ballot may be issued.

Bachochin said residents may request and vote an absentee ballot at their respective municipal clerk’s office during the days and hours specified by each local clerk. In-person absentee voting dates and times vary by municipality. No in-person absentee voting may occur on the day before the election.
