The Cook County Clerk’s Office and the Village of Palatine are pleased to announce that Early Voting will take place in Palatine at 150 W. Wilson Street. This building most recently served as the temporary Village Hall for the Village of Palatine.
Due to anticipated record voter turnout this November, and other logistical issues at the current Village Hall which has served as the Early Voting site in the past, it was necessary to identify an alternative location. The Village provided the Clerk’s Office with several alternative sites and the Clerk has selected 150 W. Wilson Street.
