SEPTEMBER 14, 2010
OFFICE OF THE MILWAUKEE COUNTY ELECTION COMMISSION
TO THE ELECTORS OF THE CITY OF MILWAUKEE, MILWAUKEE COUNTY:
Notice is hereby given of a partisan primary to be held in the City of Milwaukee on the 14th day of September, 2010, at which the nominees for the offices named below shall be chosen. The names of the candidates for each office, whose nominations have been certified to or filed in this office, are given under the title of the office under the appropriate party or other designation, each in its proper column.
INFORMATION TO ELECTORS
Upon entering the polling place, an elector shall give his or her name and address before being permitted to vote. Where ballots are distributed to electors, the initials of two inspectors must appear on the ballot. Upon being permitted to vote, the elector shall retire alone to a voting booth and cast his or her ballot except that an elector who is a parent or guardian may be accompanied by the elector’s minor child or minor ward. An election official may inform the elector of the proper manner for casting a vote, but the official may not in any manner advise or indicate a particular voting choice.
At the partisan primary the elector may select the party of his or her choice or the ballot containing the names of independent candidates for legislative office.
Where optical scan voting is used, the elector shall connect the arrow next to the party of his or her choice. The elector shall then connect the arrow next to the candidates’ names for whom he or she intends to vote under the party of his or her choice. To vote for a person whose name does not appear on the ballot, the elector shall write in the name of the person of his or her choice in the space provided for a write-in vote, and connect the arrow on the write-in line. Write-in votes are not permitted on the Independent ballot.
Where touch screen voting systems are used, the elector shall depress the button next to the party of his or her choice. The elector shall then depress the button next to the candidates’ names for whom he or she intends to vote. To vote for a person whose name does not appear on the ballot, the elector shall type in the name of the person of his or her choice in the space provided for a write-in vote.
In order to qualify for participation in the Wisconsin Election Campaign fund, a candidate for legislative office must receive at least 6% of the votes cast on all ballots for the office for which he or she is a candidate, in addition to other requirements.
The vote should not be cast in any other manner. Not more than five minutes’ time shall be allowed inside a voting booth. Sample ballots or other materials to assist the elector in marking his or her vote may be taken into the booth and copied. The sample ballot shall not be shown to anyone so as to reveal how the ballot is marked.
If the elector spoils an optical scan ballot, he or she shall return it to an election official who shall issue another ballot in its place, but not more than three ballots shall be issued to any one elector. If the ballot has not been initialed by two inspectors or is defective in any other way, the elector shall return it to the election official, who shall issue a proper ballot in its place. After casting his or her vote, the elector shall leave the voting booth, properly deposit the ballot and promptly leave the polling place.
The elector may spoil a touch screen ballot at the voting station, but not more than three ballots shall be issued to any one elector. After an official touch screen ballot is marked, the elector shall leave the polling place promptly.
After an official optical scan ballot is marked, it shall be inserted in the security sleeve (if provided) so the marks do not show. After casting his or her vote, the elector shall leave the booth, insert the ballot in the voting device and discard the sleeve, or deliver the ballot to an inspector for deposit.
An elector may select an individual to assist in casting his or her vote if the elector declares to the presiding official that he or she is unable to read, has difficulty reading, writing or understanding English or that due to disability is unable to cast his or her ballot. The selected individual rendering assistance may not be the elector’s employer or an agent of that employer or an officer or agent of a labor organization which represents the elector.
Following is a sample of the official ballot.
