Everything You Need to Know About Today's Election

If the Milwaukee County Executive race and the Wisconsin Supreme Court race are not enough to draw voters to the polls today, Whitefish Bay also has two important elections on the ballot: four write-in candidates vying for two Village Board seats and a new candidate challenging two School Board incumbents.

Who's on the ballot?

While there are no listed candidates on the ballot for Village Trustee, four write-in trustee candidates are vying for two vacant seats on the Village Board.

Voters will be asked to draw a line next to the write-in candidate designation, then write in two of the four candidates: William Demet, , Lauri Rollings (Patch coverage and ) or .

All four candidates at a candidate forum hosted by Patch last week.

Because write-in votes are not calculated by voting machines, election results in the Village Board race will not be counted until Wednesday, when the Board of Canvassers meet.

The top two write-in candidates in the election each will win a trustee seat, assuming they are legally qualified. A special election would be held in the event of a tie.

In the Whitefish Bay School Board election, attorney Anne Berleman Kearney, a political newcomer, is challenging six-year incumbents Marie Greco and Jim Phillips in a three-way race for two board seats. Terms are three years long.

The three candidates also shared their views in a , as well as in an last week.
