Only Clerk's Office Open on Good Friday as Early Voting Ends

Friday is the last day for residents to vote early in person for Tuesday's election and clerks' offices across the state, including Greenfield's, are required to be open.

With the spring election on Tuesday, muncipal clerks' offices across the state - including Greenfield - are required to be open on Good Friday.

The clerk’s office at Greenfield City Hall will be open for in-person absentee voting and other election details that day, but only the building's south entrance will be open since all other offices will be closed.

Friday is the deadline for in-person voting. You may also cast an absentee ballot by mail, but it must be postmarked no later than Tuesday. Here is more information on voting early in Wisconsin.
