Early voting begins Monday for Wisconsin's April 5 presidential primary and spring election, with at least one Republican presidential contender scheduled to be in the state Wednesday and Milwaukee poised to hire 200 additional poll workers to deal with what is expected to be higher than average turnout in the city.

Early voting at municipal clerks' offices will run Monday through Friday and March 28 to April 1. There will be no early voting on weekends.
