At a Tuesday evening campaign event for Mary Burke, Democratic nominee for governor of Wisconsin, President Barack Obama encouraged voters to participate in early voting.



"One week, Wisconsin. One week. One week from today you get to choose a new governor. And because early voting runs through this Friday, you don't have to wait until election day," Obama told the crowd in Milwaukee.



"You can vote all week," Obama added.



"I mean you can only vote once, this isn't Chicago now," Obama told the crowd, laughing.



"I'm teasing Chicago, I'm messing with you. That was a long time ago," Obama added.
