Unable To Get To Polls Tuesday? Here's A Solution

If you are unable to go to the polls on Tuesday, there are still opportunities through the weekend to “vote early”. This does not mean your vote will not be counted. It is counted just as if you cast the ballot on Election Day.

For more information, contact the McHenry County Clerk’s Office at 815-334-4242.

The state law requires that a registered voter show valid photo identification before voting early.  Voters casting an early ballot must display a current driver’s license, a state-issued ID card or another government-issued ID with a photograph.

Any voter who requests an “Early Ballot” or an “In Person Absentee Ballot” MAY NOT go to the polls on Election Day and revoke the ballot he originally requested.  The law prohibits any voter who has been issued an “In Person Absentee Ballot” or “Early Ballot” from appearing at his precinct polling place and requesting another ballot. 

For more information about early voting or voting locations, contact the McHenry County Clerk’s office at 815-334-4242.
