Madison voters were out in full force Tuesday morning to determine key statewide races, including whether two-term incumbent Gov. Scott Walker wins re-election or if his Democratic challenger Tony Evers is successful.


At 11 a.m., with six wards yet to report, the Madison Clerk’s Office reported turnout at 29.15 percent of registered voters. The turnout number reflects some absentee ballots, which are processed throughout the day at polling places.


Madison’s mid-day turnout in 2014 was at 23 percent of registered voters and slightly higher at 25 percent in 2016, according to the clerk’s office.

2. I'm in Waukesha county and as of 10 am they had almost 700 votes cast at my polling place.

There was a steady stream of people when we were voting. I think maybe we have a good chance of getting rid of Walker!
