The City of Oshkosh is encouraging people to vote absentee in the primary election in two weeks.
Clerk Pam Ubrig says they don’t want everyone to show up at the polls because of COVID-19. Oshkosh’s city council ordered the clerk’s office to mail a request form to every registered voter in the city, explaining how people can ask for an absentee ballot.
There were issues before the April election, when thousands of absentee ballots for people in the Oshkosh and Appleton areas never arrived. They were later found in a postal processing facility in Milwaukee.
Voters can return their ballot by mail, or in the drop box at Oshkosh’s City Hall.
