SHEBOYGAN COUNTY, WI (WHBL) - The polls will be open across Wisconsin from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. for voters to choose who they want to win in a wide variety of elections.
Everyone in the state will have the chance to vote in two races:
-One is for a seat on the State Supreme Court. Justice Ann Walsh Bradley is running for another ten-year term, and faces a challenge from Rock County Circuit Court Judge James Daley.
-Also, voters will decide on a state constitutional amendment regarding how the state supreme court selects its chief justice. A yes vote would allow justices to decide its chief, while a no vote would keep the practice of having the most senior justice lead the court.
