WAUKEGAN, Illinois – County Clerk Carla N. Wyckoff announced that ballots for the March 15 primary are now available for those choosing to vote early at the Clerk’s office or by mail.
Ballot printing was delayed because The Illinois State Board of Elections was reviewing objections filed against several U.S. presidential candidates. Without state certification of all the candidates, ballots could not be printed and voting across the state was delayed.
In-person early voting is open weekdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. until February 26 at the Lake County Clerk’s office, 18 N. County St. Waukegan.
Registered voters wishing to vote by mail can complete a personalized online application at LakeVoterPower.info after logging in and confirming voter registration status. The last day to request a ballot by mail is March 10.
Early voting begins on February 29 at 14 locations throughout the county. Some voting sites have extended evening and weekend hours. Visit LakeCountyClerk.info and click on “Voting by mail, early, or on Election Day” to find a convenient location near home, work, or along the way.
