Election Day Resources
- Find Your Polling Place — Help direct voters to where they can cast their ballot with polling place locators from Premier Partners Democracy Works (creators of GetToThePolls.com and the Voter Information Project’s embeddable widget), Rock the Vote, and Vote.Org. You can also find state-specific tools at your state election office web site. To find polling places in Illinois, click here.
- Candidate Guides — There are literally hundreds of elected officials looking for votes tomorrow and people need help sorting through what they all stand for. Point them to robust guides at GetToThePolls.com, Ballotpedia, Ballot Ready, and Vote411.
- Discount Rides to the Polls — While Premier Partner Lyft led the way, we’re seeing other ride-share services offer discounted rides for voters looking to get to the polls. Find out more about Lyft, Uber and Lime.
