With just a day until the 2024 presidential election, Milwaukee’s communities are rallying to make their voices heard.
Early voting efforts have surged, with residents casting their ballots within the first few days, marking a record turnout and a surge of civic engagement.
Local leaders and organizations are working tirelessly to keep the momentum going, encouraging residents to take a stand in what many are calling a historic election.
On the city’s north side, the Hmong American Women’s Association (HAWA) is in full gear, hosting an event at The Hmong Town Market.
“We’re really just getting folks ready to go out and vote tomorrow,” said Vina Xiong from HAWA.

The organization is collaborating with other local groups to offer resources, candidate guides, and answer questions to help Hmong, Black, and Hispanic voters make informed choices.
“This is not just about the Hmong community—it’s for Black and Hispanic communities,” Xiong said, underscoring the unity within Milwaukee’s diverse neighborhoods.
