Election day · Nov 3, 2026

We haven't reviewed IL's registration and early-voting dates yet — they come from the state's official election pages, and election day itself is set by statute, not by us. That is a gap in our review, not a finding that these dates are wrong.

  • Early voting opensSep 24, 2026

    Early voting may begin as early as 40 days before election day; permanent early-voting sites are optional and need only open from the 15th day before, so sites, dates and hours vary by election authority.

  • Registration deadlineOct 6, 2026

    Register by mail by 28 days before (Oct 6) or online by 16 days before (Oct 18); grace-period and election-day registration are available at designated locations.
