there is also early voting for those who are not worried by electronic voting machines. i believe the site for this area is pottawatomie park.
Many registered voters in Illinois are unable to vote in person at the polling place on election day. Early voting was created to allow the voter to vote in a designated polling place during the 22nd day through the 5th day preceding an election without having to supply an excuse or reason. This document provides general information regarding the correct procedures to follow in order to vote early in Illinois.
unfortunately, the campaign around here is just getting started because everyone has been in iowa.
Were you expecting a miracle or something? Expecting David Fagus to finally do something in terms of increasing voter registration or turnout in the rotten bourough known as the 49th Ward? You should know better by now!
Thats only for the primary they will be able to register for the general election.
