FISERV FORUM TO SERVE AS EARLY VOTING SITE FOR 2022 GENERAL ELECTION

MILWAUKEE (Sept. 27, 2022) – Fiserv Forum, the Milwaukee Bucks’ state-of-the-art downtown arena, will serve as an early voting site for the 2022 general election. On select dates from Oct. 25 through Nov. 5, eligible voters living in the City of Milwaukee may cast their ballots in-person at Fiserv Forum in advance of the Nov. 8 General Election. 

 

Voters must use the Johnson Controls Entrance at the corner of 6th Street and Juneau Avenue. The voting location will be held just inside the doors in the lobby area. Free parking for voters will be available on Juneau between 6th Street and 5th Street. For voters who cannot enter the arena due to a disability, curbside voting is available. For more information go to Milwaukee.gov/earlyvoting.

 

Fiserv Forum Early Voting Schedule: 

Tuesday, October 25: 9 a.m. – 6 p.m. 

Thursday, October 27: 9 a.m. – 6 p.m.

“Every voter in Milwaukee should be ensured with a safe and convenient way to exercise their right to vote,” said Bucks and Fiserv Forum President Peter Feigin.  “As a major part of our community, Fiserv Forum is an ideal early voting location where everyone’s voice can be heard in a responsible way. We encourage every eligible voter to cast their ballot.” 

 

“The Bucks are graciously and generously opening the doors of Fiserv Forum for early voting, and I hope this inspires more eligible Milwaukee residents to cast a ballot this fall,” Mayor Cavalier Johnson said. “Voter participation strengthens democracy, and, when Milwaukee voters cast ballots, their voices are heard by elected officials.” 

 

“Student populations often wait until Election Day to update their registration and vote, which can create longer lines and wait times on campus,” said Claire Woodall-Vogg, Executive Director of the Milwaukee Election Commission. “We hope that this convenient location will encourage Marquette and MATC students to skip the Election Day line and vote early.”  

 

The NBA recently announced that no games will be held on the Nov. 8 Election Day.
