MILWAUKEE—Voters in Wisconsin headed to the polls on Tuesday for the first day of early in-person voting as 17 million voters nationwide have already cast ballots in the contentious election.

The onset of in-person absentee voting has drawn campaigns to the state. Former President Barack Obama will appear with Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz in Madison on Oct. 22 in support of Vice President Kamala Harris. Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), the running mate of former President Donald Trump, spoke in Waukesha on Oct. 20.
