Minneapolis St. Paul, MN, July 29, 2026 —

MADISON, WI – Residents of Wisconsin have commenced early in-person voting for the upcoming primary elections. The state’s primary elections are officially scheduled to take place on August 11, 2026.

Early voting allows registered voters to cast their ballots in person at designated polling locations before the official Election Day. This period is designed to provide more flexibility for voters who may not be able to reach their polling place on the primary election date.

The August 11 date marks the primary elections, a crucial step in the electoral process where voters select candidates who will advance to the general election. Specific details regarding polling locations and hours for early voting are typically managed at the municipal level and may vary across different counties and cities within Wisconsin.

Voters are encouraged to check with their local municipal clerk’s office or the Wisconsin Elections Commission website for precise information on early voting periods, locations, and any specific requirements for casting a ballot during this early period.

The primary elections will determine which candidates will appear on the general election ballot later in the year. The outcome of these primaries will set the stage for the final contests in November.
