Wisconsin requires a state issued photo ID be shown to get a ballot, and a reminder that it’s illegal to display your completed ballot so don’t take a photo to display on your favorite social media site.

If you’re a first time voter, or haven’t voted in the last four years, you will likely need to register before you vote which can be done at your polling location. You will need to show proof of residency like a utility bill as well as a state issued drivers license or ID Card. If you don’t have an ID, you can register with the last four digits of your social security number, but you will need that photo ID to obtain a ballot.

Results of the election will likely not be ready by the end of the night, and maybe not even Wednesday as over 1 and a half million absentee ballots also need to be manually entered starting at 7 AM today at the polling locations.
