Early voting starts Monday at 50 sites across Chicago

Early voting and registration kicks off Monday at polling places in each of Chicago’s 50 wards.

The new sites where Chicagoans can register and cast early ballots in the March 17 primary elections are in addition to the Loop Super Site at 191 N. Clark St., which has been open since Feb. 19.

While a government-issued ID isn’t required, it could help answer potential questions about a voter’s registration, address or signature and whether there are two people with the same or similar names at a single address. Those looking to register for the first time or file an address update or name change must present two forms of ID, including one that shows their current address.

On March 11, early voting and registration will expand to: Chicago State University, 9501 S. Martin Luther King Drive; Northeastern Illinois University, 5500 N. St. Louis Ave.; the University of Chicago Reynolds Club, 5706 S. University Ave; and and the University of Illinois at Chicago Student Center East, 750 S. Halsted St.
