Early Voting Site Moves To Oak Lawn Library For Presidential Election

OAK LAWN, IL — The early voting location for the upcoming Presidential Election has been moved out of Oak Lawn Village Hall across the street to the Oak Lawn Public Library.

The new location was approved by the Cook County Clerk, the election authority for suburban Cook, last month.

Early voting in village hall was located in the second floor auditorium where village board and commission meetings are held. Voting equipment was pushed to the walls to make room for other village business. Police and village adjudications had to be pushed up to accommodate early voting.

After a few incidents during the March primary, the village proposed to move early voting to another site as a matter of convenience.

Early voting will start Oct. 21 and continue through Nov. 4 at the Oak Lawn Public Library, 9427 S. Raymond Ave. in meeting room C. The library is wheelchair accessible and has an elevator.

Oak Lawn Village Hall, 9446 S. Raymond Ave., will continue to serve as a polling place for the Presidential Election Nov. 5 in the main lobby.
