Voting in Chicago: A List of Voting Locations in Chicago’s 50 Wards

COVID-19 has put much of the 2020 Presidential election into focus on how voters can ensure their ballot is cast in a safe yet secure manner. With that, more and more voters are turning to mail-in ballots and early voting as a way to combat long, potentially dangerous, lines at the polls on November 3rd. Early voting in Chicago kicked off on October 1st, while vote-by-mail ballots began being sent out a few weeks ago.

After going through the process ourselves, we decided to give a round-up of simple information for folks still looking to vote early, safely, and still have their voices heard.
