Five Days "and a Sleep"

 
One of our staff members told us that whenever their children were excited about a special event such as a birthday, Christmas or a vacation, they added up how many days were left until the event but never counted the actual day of the event. They would simply add in "and a sleep," which made the occasion seem even closer.

Election Day in Wisconsin is THIS COMNG TUESDAY, November 3, that's 5 days "and a sleep" away; and Wisconsin Family Action would like to streamline everything you need to know before you vote. No need for excessive time spent reading through items you may not need. We will simply let you "click" on the information you want before you fill out your ballot.

BUT FIRST... You have your absentee ballot in hand right now. What should you do? ABSENTEE BALLOTS must be returned by the close of polls (8 p.m.) on Election Day, Tuesday, November 3. You can return absentee ballots by walking them into the clerk’s office or by putting them in a secure designated drop box at the clerk’s office. You don't have to mail them! And we would recommend NOT mailing them at this point.
CURBSIDE VOTING is available if you are unable to enter the polling place or absentee voting location due to disability. Contact your municipal clerk HERE beforehand to discuss arrival time, what documentation you will need, and what you should do when you get to the voting location.

►If you are interested in sharing President Trump's Historic Accomplishments, click HERE.

Last, but not by any means least, please continue to pray. Ask God to lead His people to vote after taking time to prayerfully consider what is before them. Pray for President Trump (and his family) as he enters the home stretch of this election. Pray for God to raise up godly leadership across the nation. 

Wisconsin Family Action works hard during election time (and all year!) to bring you trustworthy, accurate information that aligns with your Judeo-Christian values. Click HERE to partner with us today!
JUDGE AMY CONEY BARRETT BECOMES JUSTICE BARRETT
US Senate confirms President Trump’s conservative nominee to high court
On a 52-48 vote, [Monday evening] the US Senate confirmed President Donald Trump’s nominee, Amy Coney Barrett, as an associate justice to the United States Supreme Court. The vote was along party lines with the notable exception of Senator Susan Collins (R-ME) who voted with the Democrats.

The following statement is from Julaine Appling, president of Wisconsin Family Action:

“This is one of the good consequences of having a president who has been committed to conservative judicial appointments. Justice Barrett showed during her confirmation hearings that she is imminently qualified in judicial philosophy, temperament and character to serve on our nation’s highest court. I have no doubt that we will, as a nation, be well served for years to come by this wife and mother of seven who is a brilliant legal mind and has had a distinguished legal career."
