Municipality Reporting Status
There are 19 municipalities in Milwaukee County. Nine municipalities process their absentee ballots at a central location within the municipality. Absentee ballots for the other ten municipalities are processed at their respective polling locations.
The following municipalities use Central Count of Absentee Ballots (Wis. Stat. Sec. 7.52). Once the County Clerk/Election Commission’s office receives the transmission of 100% of total ballots cast in-person at all polling locations within each of these specific municipalities, the website will indicate that 100% of the reporting units have reported. However, results are NOT complete until the county has received the reporting of all ballots, to include ballots processed at central count location. A checkmark indicates that the County Clerk/Election Commission’s office has received 100% of ballots processed (in-person ballots AND absentee ballots processed at central count) for that municipality.
