“Now voters may cast their ballot conveniently at a polling place near their job or school, instead of rushing to or from their home precinct,” DuPage County Clerk Kaczmarek says. “Best of all, DuPage voters will no longer be turned away on Election Day for being in the wrong polling place in the county.”
The “Vote Anywhere” program was successfully implemented for the first time in the June 28, 2022 Primary Election, with approximately 13.5% of Election Day voters choosing to vote outside of their home precinct polling place. Ballots are printed on-demand at the polling place for each voter after check-in using the county’s brand-new all-paper ballot voting system.
The number of precincts remains unchanged from 2020. No voter will be deprived of their local polling place in order to fulfill “Vote Anywhere” Election Day voting. As always, strict security measures will be in place to ensure one person, one vote.
“There is not a jurisdiction in the state of Illinois making it easier to vote than DuPage County,” Kaczmarek says. “I encourage all DuPage County voters to take advantage of the opportunity to exercise their fundamental right to vote.”
