On the first day of early, in-person voting, voters formed lines across Wisconsin, a key battleground state. Former President Barack Obama and Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz held rallies urging supporters to cast their ballots ahead of Election Day.
Recent history shows Wisconsin's razor-thin margins, like the 21,000-vote difference in the 2020 presidential election. Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris are bracing for another tight race, with both sides advocating for early voting.
With a heightened focus on early and absentee voting, party leaders anticipate substantial turnout. Over 360,000 absentee ballots have already been returned, indicating a vigorous engagement from both Republicans, led by Trump, and Democrats.
