NOW: Mayor Johnson casts ballot, stresses importance of voting in this election

MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- In Milwaukee, Mayor Cavalier Johnson cast his vote Wednesday morning, along with County Executive David Crowley. This was at 60th and Capitol, one of the 10 early voting locations around the city. 

The mayor says he's visited a couple of polling places and he's seen long lines of what he called "enraged" and "excited" voters. He wants those who haven't voted yet to understand how important this election is.

"Whoever wins Wisconsin is going to win the White House," Mayor Johnson said. "And elections here, statewide elections here are decided on a razor's edge. And so the people who live in this city, if they realize the power that they have and they go to the polls, like we're seeing right now, they have the capacity to turn this election around."

These are the 10 early voting locations in the city of Milwaukee. 

You can see from the map that there should be one close to any city voter.
