You can also see what is on your particular ballot. There are a couple of crazy challengers in this primary. Remember, you have to vote one party only, but there are challengers for some positions within a party.
If you think your vote in the primary election means nothing, get a load of this:
Last night on the news, I heard that a major player was telling members of their party to actually vote the opposite party. Why? There are races where there is a formidable opponent in the other party vs. an unchallenged incumbent. They are being told to switch parties and vote for the weaker of the two challengers, so the incumbent has a shoe-in. Dirty pool! Dirty politics! Looks like they are afraid of the truth!

There was no waiting when I voted, around 4 PM.
Poor turn out at my voting location. My number was in the low 70's at about 3 pm and the place was empty.
Primaries historically have low turnouts.
Even the regular Racine election draws less that 20% of the voters.
So I say to the other 80%, screw you! I'm not going to get too involved or too worried about local politics. You get what you (don't) vote for.
If you don't vote, you can't batch.
Bitch. Sheesh.
