VOTER REGISTRATION GUIDELINES

Residency Requirement: Voters must reside at their address for at least 28 days by Election Day in order to register to vote. If you have moved into our municipality less than 28 days (moved in after January 20, 2026), you will need to either vote from your previous address, either by absentee ballot or at the previous polling place.

Voter Registration: Voters are not required to provide a photo ID to register. However, Voters must provide a Proof of Residence Document when registering. A list of documents that can be used for proof of residence: https://elections.wi.gov/sites/default/files/documents/POR%20List%20and%20Info.pdf

Registration can take place online or by mail, up to 20 days (January 29, 2026) before the election. If you have a valid WI Driver License or WI ID card issued by the WI Dept of Motor Vehicles (DMV), you can register online at My Vote WI (https://myvote.wi.gov/en-us/). Otherwise, you can register to vote in-person with the Clerk up until the Friday before the Election, or at the polls on Election Day.

VOTING BY ABSENTEE BALLOT

Absentee Ballots are available by mail beginning January 26, 2026. Voters can request a mailed absentee ballot up until the Thursday before the Election (though it is encouraged to request this sooner, to allow enough mailing time). Requesting a mailed absentee ballot can be easily done online through My Vote WI (https://myvote.wi.gov/en-us/). If you request a mailed absentee ballot, you can track your mailed ballot through the My Vote WI website.

Before Election Day, Absentee Ballots can either be mailed back, using the supplied postage-paid envelope, or dropped off at your Clerk’s Office (by appointment only). Absentee Ballots can also be dropped off in-person at the polls, on Election Day; however, it must be the voter who delivers the absentee ballot (unless there is a medical reason preventing).

In-Person Absentee Ballots are available 14 days (February 3, 2026) before the Election, with the last day being 5:00 p.m., the Sunday before the Election. To vote in-person, you must make an appointment with the Clerk.

Absentee Voting is similar to voting at the polls, in that, you are required to be a registered voter and show photo ID. Acceptable Photo ID’s: https://elections.wi.gov/acceptable-photo-ids
