Unlike absentee voting, early voting does not require a reason for submitting a ballot before Election Day. A voter registered in DuPage County can visit any early voting site in the county and present a valid government issued photo ID card to receive a ballot.

Will County residents who reside in incorporated Naperville can visit the Will County Clerk’s office to take part in early voting or visit the City Clerk’s Office at the Municipal Center Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and on Saturday, March 3 and Saturday, March 10 from 9 a.m. to noon. Will County residents who wish to vote early must visit the specified early voting site in which they reside because local clerks are only supplied with ballots for the residents that live within their limits. A full list of locations is available at www.thewillcountyclerk.com

Please note voter registration will be closed February 22 through March 22. The City Clerk’s office will be open on Saturday, February 18 to accommodate voter registration from 9 a.m. to noon.
