Early Voting begins at 51 Chicago sites

CHICAGO, IL — Early Voting for Illinois primary elections began on March 5 at 51 locations in Chicago, and each site also will offer voter registration.

Races on the ballot for the March 20 primary include for Illinois governor, attorney general, secretary of state, treasurer, and comptroller; Cook County’s board of commissioners, board president, assessor, clerk, and treasurer; along with all of the state’s Congressional seats, all 118 Illinois House seats, and 39 of the 59 Illinois Senate seats.

The Illinois primary election on March 20 will determine the Republican and Democratic nominees who will appear on the November general election ballot.

Every site will be open Monday through Saturday, 9 am. to 5 pm., and Sundays from 10 am to 4 pm through March 19.

Early Voting also will be offered on March 14 through March 16 at Northeastern Illinois University, the University of Illinois at Chicago, and Chicago State University.

Voters don’t need a reason or excuse to use Early Voting. Chicago voters may use any early voting site in the city, regardless of where they live.

Voters who need to a file name or address change, or who need to register for the first time, will need to present two forms of ID, at least one of which shows the voter’s current address. Voters who register or file a name or address change must be ready to vote during that same visit.

“For voters who have their minds made up, early voting means the flexibility to cast your ballot when and where you want without worrying about a scheduling conflict on Election Day,” said Election Board chairwoman Marisel Hernandez.

For more information, Chicago voters may visit chicagoelections.com. Every Chicago voter also will receive a mailing, which provides the Election Day polling place for that voter’s address, information on Voting By Mail and at least two Early Voting sites.
