MINOCQUA - Tuesday marks the third statewide primary election day in Wisconsin this year.

We talked to voters in Minocqua about whether they're getting tired of heading to the polls.

The consensus: while they don't mind voting, they could do without the bickering that leads up to it.

"We sometimes turn off the TV. We don't want to hear it anymore," said Dolores Johnson.

"I'm not getting tired of the elections, it's the sassy stuff that they're doing on TV, instead of getting down to the basics of what they stand for" said Karyl Winch of Hazelhurst. "There's been a lot of negativity, and I think that the people running for office need to focus more on what they stand for."

Bob Scott of Minocqua sees this as a critical time for people to get involved.

"If you have an opinion, you better take out the few moments it takes to get out and vote or you shouldn't be able to talk about it," he said.

Voting is especially important for Gisella Lusa.

Lusa lived under communist rule in Eastern Germany, but now - her last name says it all.

"I like the spelling of L-U-S-A. USA - I am a citizen of the United States," she said. "Everybody should get out and vote, because everyone should voice their opinion and this is, like I said, a free country. So go out and vote."
