Get out there and VOTE
Still thinking about whom to vote for? Wisconsin Family Action does a thorough job of vetting candidates committed to life and the importance of traditional family values. FocusVoter.com Voter Guide
Remember, this is a primary. The ballots will be complicated. Ask for help if you don’t get it right away!
- Choose a party; stay within that party when you’re choosing individual candidates.
- If you’re not sure of the issues or the candidates, you don’t have vote in every race on the ballot.
- And for those of us still messing up… you can ruin up to three ballots and still vote. Return the ballot with the mistake to an election official and let him or her know you had a problem.
Use this Government Accountability Board web site to determine your polling location if you’re not sure of it. Then get out there and VOTE!

Actually the link below will get you to the Wisconsin voter guide. It is a great website. And yes I voted this morning. It is our duty and a privilege to do so.
Nancy (Tue Sep 14 10:10:35 2010)
Let me add this qualifier:
Do not know the issues?
Do not know the candidates?
PLEASE STAY HOME AND DO NOT INFLICT YOUR IGNORANCE UPON US!!
Ken Van Doren (Tue Sep 14 10:16:40 2010)
Good Ken. A much needed qualifier.
Thanks Nancy, for correcting the link. Eeek. I corrected it in the piece.
Jo (Tue Sep 14 10:20:20 2010)
Jo,
It's a good time to thank you again for your blog. All the discussions here help to make voting decisions.
Mike P. (Tue Sep 14 11:22:21 2010)
A ditto on that, Mike.
C. R. Stevenson (Tue Sep 14 12:18:13 2010)
I just voted at Fox Valley Lutheran H.S. and observed another example of poor judgement by the McCormick campaign. There are several of her signs in the public roadway, Hwy. JJ, across from the polling place. Way to follow the rules, Terry. Pathetic.
Phyllis Klee (Tue Sep 14 12:34:12 2010)
Regarding Klee's snotty comments about where McCormick has her signs placed, the law says that they have to be 100 feet from the ENTRANCE of a voting place. Not knowing the rules is Pathetic !
Guido (Tue Sep 14 15:47:38 2010)
Guido,
100 feet on private property, not public property.
But then again, most of her signs are just stuck whatever vacent peice of land they could find.
Nobody wanted them in their yard.
