You don’t have to wait until February 2 to cast your vote in the Illinois Republican Primary.
That’s because Illinois Early Voting has begun – and you can cast your vote now!
That’s right, in Illinois you can vote early between now and Thursday, January 28. To find your local Early Voting location(s), click HERE.
You don’t need a reason to vote early – other than the fact that it makes voting more convenient to you.
Beat the long lines – and potential bad weather on Election Day – and vote early. You just need to be a registered voter and have a government-issued photo ID (such as a Drivers License).
NOTE: In Illinois, there is no such thing as a “Registered Republican,” “Registered Democrat,” or “Registered Independent.” If you’re registered to vote, you can vote in the Republican Primary and help choose our winning team for 2010!
If you are not registered to vote but meet the legal requirements to become a registered voter, you can register and vote at your County Clerk or Election Authority office until Thursday, January 28 under the “Grace Period” registration system. Contact your County Clerk or Election Authority for more information.
