March 20th Primary and 28 Days of Voting


Regular voter registration ends 28 days before an election (e.g. mail-in, at the driver's license facility, etc), but these days we have Grace Period Registration. If you still need to register or change your address you can bring your required IDs to any of the early voting locations  or election day polling place to register and then vote. More information at the Champaign County Clerk's website:
Grace Period allows an extension of the period of time an individual has to register to vote or change their address. Grace Period begins Thursday, February 22, 2018 and runs through 7:00pm on Election Day, Tuesday, March 20, 2018.

During Grace Period, an individual may register to vote or submit a change of address in-person and vote directly thereafter, at any of our Early Voting locations or at their Election Day polling place.
On-line Registration is still open through March 4th here: https://ova.elections.il.gov/

Election day falls within spring break for students and a lot of vacations, so make a plan to vote. There are a lot of options including Early Voting and Vote-by-Mail, both happening right now.

Multiple Early Voting locations open on March 13th (currently the County Clerk's office location is available). Vote-by-Mail runs through March 15th (more details here).
