“There are more than 10,000 eyes in the state of Wisconsin on the work that we’re doing everyday. If there was an issue, we wouldn’t just be hearing on some chats we would be hearing it everywhere,“ said Pytleski. “Have confidence – the people  are out there, they are observing, the eyes and ears are there. These are your neighbors, they are clergy, firefighters, retired school teachers, law enforcement that comes in. Everyone who is working this process does it  because they love their communities. This is our profession. We hold ourselves to the highest level of integrity.”

RightCount and WisACT will partner again for another in person conversation October 28th, less than a week to Election Day, on UW-Oshkosh’s campus. More information will be announced in the coming weeks.
