The Wittenberg location isn't scheduled to be open again before Nov. 4 and the Minocqua office is open next on election day.

If you live in Fort Atkinson, the local service center in the city building is open from 8:15 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on the second and fourth Thursday of the month. That leaves three days before the election — Sept. 25, Oct. 9 and Oct. 23 — to appear in person as required to get an ID.

The closest DMV alternatives for Fort Atkinson residents are in Watertown and Janesville, both about 20 miles away. If you consider that someone looking to get a valid ID doesn't currently have a valid driver's license, travel could be an issue.

A driver's license or ID card issued by the Department of Transportation is valid for voting even if the address is not current, as long as its expiration date is after the last November general election on Nov. 6, 2012, according to the Government Accountability Board, which lists other acceptable forms of ID here.
