For Immediate Release – March 5, 2018

Early Voting begins Monday at 51 sites

Early Voting begins Mon., March 5 at 51 locations in Chicago, and each site also will offer voter registration.

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

Early Voting also will be offered on March 14 through March 16 at Northeastern 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 A. 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.
