League ... Nonpartisan since 1920
AND ... YOU CAN VOTE WHERE on election day?
The Lake County Clerk's Office has announced the transition to a vote center model for Election Day voting, offering increased accessibility, convenience, and efficiency for all voters in Lake County. Under this model, Lake County Voters will still be assigned a Preferred Election Day Voting Site but are no longer restricted to voting at that location. Instead, they can cast their ballot at any of the fully equipped vote centers located throughout Lake County, regardless of their residential address. All vote centers are fully equipped to serve any registered voter in Lake County, ensuring a seamless and efficient voting experience.
While this model applies to Election Day voting within Lake County, voters must ensure they visit a polling location in Lake County to cast their ballot. Voters attempting to vote outside of Lake County or non-Lake County voters attempting to vote here may still need to vote provisionally or could be redirected depending on the circumstances.

*Note if the number to vote for is the same as the number of candidates, the election is uncontested. Also note the duration of terms.
