THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE!!
This is a double edged comment. We can be grateful for those who risk all to cast ballots. More heroes stepping forth in these challenging times.
We can be energized to work for a better world where such constraints are not put upon the right to vote!!!
Then too I want to comment that these sites are all MPS High Schools. I hope the community has supported the MPS funding referendum.

I worked as an Election Judge at South Division High School for nine (9) very long hours—I’m blessed I had enough sense to brew coffee during my pre-dawn’s early light wake-up! I also am blessed I requested my ABSENTEE BALLOT as soon as I could. I encourage every registered Wisconsin voter to request an absentee ballot AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, as I feel for those who chose to go to one of the five City of Milwaukee Polling Places yesterday, and ARRIVED TOO LATE TO VOTE.
The 2020 Partisan Primary Election is scheduled to take place TUESDAY, AUGUST 11, 2020 and EVERY VOTER WITHIN MILWAUKEE COUNTY and the CITY of MILWAUKEE—should request ABSENTEE BALLOTS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE which means NOW via this link: https://myvote.wi.gov/en-US/VoteAbsentee

The MyVote site also lists the elections we voted in. I think we should be able to monitor that and see if our absentee ballots for April 7, 2020 show up.
