Early voting for the Nov. 5 general election has begun. How well do you know the local candidates and voting processes?
Here are some resources:
Batavia Voter Guide: Batavians will vote in the State Senate race, three State Representative races, plus various Kane County and DuPage County races.
Geneva Voter Guide: Geneva’s guide looks very similar to Batavia’s — though the 65th District race replaces 50th District race, and DuPage County won’t be on the ballot.
St. Charles Voter Guide: Two State Representative races will be on the ballot along with Kane County races.
Voter Registration Lookup: Check to see if you’re registered and find polling places and key dates.
Find My Elected Representatives: A useful interactive map allowing you to see elected officials for any location in Illinois.
Candidates: View a list of candidates for both Kane County and DuPage County races. Printable lists are available for both.
If you still need to register to vote, you can do that here. If you’re already registered and prefer to vote early, here are the Kane County locations and DuPage County locations where you can do so.
