Milwaukee and 34 other Wisconsin jurisdictions will have a central count location for absentee ballots, meaning all of the ballots in those spots will be counted collectively and added to unofficial voting counts after the Election Day in-person votes. Wisconsin Elections Commission Administrator Meagan Wolfe said Tuesday morning that means those results could arrive in the early morning hours of Wednesday. In all, 1.6 million voters cast in-person and requested mail-in absentee votes in the state. As of Tuesday morning, Milwaukee reported that 106,750 absentee ballots had been returned in the city. Those can still be returned before 8 p.m. Tuesday to be counted.
