Cook County polling places are opening at 6 a.m. and closing at 7 p.m.. Use the map above to locate your assigned polling location. As there are hundreds of locations spread across the county, officials hope to reduce long lines on Election Day. However, for some that prefer to vote ahead of time, there are early voting sites open several weeks before election day. If this is you, then there is no need to worry about finding your polling site.
Cook County officials emphasize the importance of giving the public readily accessible voting options, while also maintaining health and convenience priorities for voters. It is encouraged that residents plan their voting methods early in order to not miss your chances later on. It is also important to note that each method of voting is just as safe and efficient as the other, so which ever method you decide to use it perfect.
As the map shows, there are many places available for people to go.
