While no specific information has been obtained by law enforcement, the Madison Police Department is asking citizens to keep their eyes and ears open when heading to the polls on Election Day on Tuesday.

The department issued election polling safety information on Wednesday, including the laws regarding campaigning too close to polling places, making false representations about candidates, and the ability to cast votes.

What stood out, however, was the vigilance asked for by police.

"The Madison Police Department wants to stress how vitally important it is that all citizens remain extremely vigilant in their observations of areas in and around voting precincts," the department said.

"While there has been no specific or actionable information developed thus far, we still think it is vitally important that people use due diligence when noting anything that is suspicious or questionable in and around polling precincts.

"Those things include suspicious individuals, unattended or questionable packages, or disturbances of any nature.

"These types of observations should be immediately reported to the police department, to ensure the safety of everyone."
