"When we have an election, we effectively take over the gym for three days; one each for set up, voting and take down," said Village Clerk/Treasurer Veronica Rudychev. "Taking up that much space for three days limits the church's ability to fully implement their children's programming."

FAQs about Tuesday's election

The Government Accountability Board, which oversees elections in Wisconsin, provided a list of answers to frequently asked questions about voting in Wisconsin. Here are some of the most important things to know.

  • Registering to vote: Register at your polling place on Election Day.
  • Voter ID: Because of recent court rulings, Wisconsin's Voter ID law will not be enforced and you do not need an identification to vote. If you are registering to vote, you will need to bring a proof of residence. For more information on the Voter ID law, visit the state's election website.
