Where Do I Vote Tuesday?
Use the Cook County Clerk’s voter information tool to confirm your Election Day polling place and review a personalized sample ballot.
Polls will be open from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. Anyone in line when polls close can still vote.
Glenview Village Hall is an early-voting location but is not an Election Day polling place.
Can I Still Vote Early?
Yes. Early voting ends Monday, Nov. 2.
Glenview Village Hall, 2500 E. Lake Ave., offers early voting Monday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., according to the village’s election information.
Suburban Cook County residents can use any suburban Cook County early-voting location. Hours vary by site, so check the Cook County Clerk’s early-voting website before visiting.
Can I Still Register?
Regular and online registration deadlines have passed, but eligible residents can still register and vote through grace-period registration.
Residents must provide two forms of identification, including one showing their current address, and vote when they register.
Registration is available at designated early-voting locations Monday and at the appropriate Election Day location Tuesday. Consult the Cook County Clerk’s registration information for details.
What If I Have A Mail Ballot?
The deadline to request a mail ballot has passed.
Completed ballots returned by mail must be postmarked by Tuesday, Nov. 3, and received by election officials within 14 days after Election Day.
The village advises voters returning ballots by mail to request a postmark at the post office because depositing an envelope in the mail does not guarantee it will receive that day’s postmark.
Voters can also use designated ballot drop boxes, following posted hours and deadlines.
Review the Cook County Clerk’s mail-ballot return instructions. Ballot-tracking information is available through the voter information tool.

Glenview residents within East Maine School District 63 will decide whether to authorize $120.6 million in bonds for school improvements.
The district says the proposal would address aging building systems, safety and security, accessibility, overcrowding and instructional spaces.
A yes vote would authorize the borrowing. A no vote would reject it. The question applies only to voters within District 63's boundaries.
Project information, frequently asked questions and estimated tax impacts are available on the district’s referendum website.
Northfield Township Referendums
Glenview voters living within Northfield Township will consider three township questions:
- Road district consolidation: A binding question asking whether to abolish the separate Northfield Township Road District and transfer its responsibilities, assets and obligations to the township.
- Food pantry meals: An advisory question asking whether the township should explore offering prepackaged meals through its food pantry.
- Waste services: An advisory question asking whether the township should assess potential efficiencies, cost savings and processes for offering garbage collection, disposal, composting and recycling services in unincorporated areas.
The road district question would not abolish Northfield Township. According to the township, existing road services would continue under a township road department if the measure passes.
The food pantry and waste services questions are nonbinding and would not establish those programs by themselves.
Read the official questions and explanations in the township’s referendum FAQ.
Cook County Advisory Referendum
Cook County voters will consider a nonbinding question asking whether Illinois should establish an additional 3 percent income tax on income exceeding $1 million.

Judicial Elections And Retention Questions
The ballot includes judicial elections and retention questions asking whether sitting judges should remain in office. Subcircuit races vary by voting address.
Residents should review their sample ballot and consult judicial evaluations before voting.
