2024 Election: Wisconsin Voting Guide, what you need to know

We hear it all the time – this next election is the most important of our lives. Our message to you is simply this – let your voice be heard by casting a ballot – make your vote count.

Wisconsin is perennially tight in presidential elections but has gone for the Republicans just once in the past 40 years, when Donald Trump won the state in 2016. A win in November could make it impossible for Democratic nominee Harris to take the White House.

Trump won the state in 2016 over Democrat Hillary Clinton by fewer than 23,000 votes and lost to Democrat Joe Biden in 2020 by just under 21,000 votes.
