John,

With the Illinois primary elections right around the corner, it’s time to start making your plan to cast a ballot! We know how important it is to participate in our democracy and make your voice heard, so we want to share some resources with you to help make the process a little easier.

You can either vote in person on Election Day at your local polling place, or you can vote early using one of the following two options:

• Vote by mail: Voting by mail is a safe, easy, and reliable way to cast a ballot. If you’re looking to vote by mail, click this link to request your mail-in ballot before June 23!
• Vote in person: Starting June 1, you can vote in person at all supersites, and on June 13, early voting locations open! To find a supersite or your neighborhood’s early voting location, click here.

If you’re not sure about your voter registration status, you can visit the Illinois State Board of Elections website to make sure you’re able to cast your vote on or before June 28th. If you’re having any troubles with your voter registration status or want to request a sample ballot, please contact your local election authority (find your local election authority here).

Whether you’re voting early, on Election Day, in person, or by mail, we thank you for taking the time to cast a ballot and exercising your civic duty.
