The Monroe County Election Board has not requested an extension of polling hours as of 5:40 p.m. on Tuesday, according to officials at the Monroe County Election Central.
The board would have needed a unanimous vote in accordance with the 2019 election law. The law was upheld by the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals on Oct. 23.
The polls in Monroe County will close at 6 p.m., but voters who are still in line at that time will still be permitted to submit their ballots.
