in the 2020 election? Of course you do. Everybody knows

Wisconsin is the smartest state in the nation.

Well I'm going to show you how because it's time for part four of our 50-part

series: Better Know A Ballot. Tonight, the

greatest state in the nation: Wisconsin! "The Voting Badgers!" What makes

Wisconsin the greatest? Well for one thing, it's home to so many fun festivals.

Milwaukee alone has Summerfest, Polish Fest, Pride Fest,

Asia Fest, German Fest, Croatian Fest, Armenian Fest, Black Arts Fest,

Irish Fest, India Fest, Greek Fest, Punk Fest, Taco Fest, Tosa Fest,

Harbor Fest, PetFest, Canni Fest, Mitten Fest, Garlic Fest and CrusherFest.

Basically, any time more than four Wisconsinites gather,

it is legally classified a fest. Another fun fact:

Wisconsin is just one of 50 states that have been selected

to vote in this year's presidential election. So here's how you can get

started voting in Wisconsin right now. We've made it easy by putting

the resources you need on betterknowaballot.com. The link for your

state is below. First, make sure you're registered to

vote. You can register online; just use our link. The deadline is

October 14th, so do it now. All registered Wisconsin voters will

automatically receive a ballot request form in the mail.

Carefully fill it out and either mail it, email it or

fax it to your municipal clerk's office with a copy of your photo ID.

You can also apply online. Again, you can just use our link to get there.

Request your ballot as soon as possible, or there's a chance

that your ballot won't arrive in time for you to send it back and have your

vote counted, so just do it now. And when you get your ballot, fill it out

carefully, and sign where indicated. You'll need one witness. Mail it to the

return address provided on the envelope.

Wisconsin ballots must be received by 8pm on November 3rd, so if you return your ballot

by mail, the U.S. Postal Service recommends sending it no later than October 27th. So play it

safe and do it right away!

You can also hand deliver your ballot to a drop box or your municipal clerk's office

before 8pm on Election Day. Check out our website for hours and locations near you.

Now if you want to vote in person, Wisconsin's early in-person voting

begins on October 20th. It varies by county so check with your local clerk's

office. Wear a mask, wash your hands, go vote.

So there you are Wisconsin. Know another smart Wisconsinite who wants to vote?

Send them this video, and spread the word using the hashtag

#betterknowaballot. Remember, Wisconsin is a swing state,

so it is more important than ever to cast your vote. But I won't

"badger" you about it, because besides being your state animal,

badgers are also a rabies vector. Let's crack open some tall

frosty democracy, you beautiful cheese heads!
