Vote Early, But Just Once, Starting Monday

Early voting in Cook County starts Monday, Feb. 27, and ends March 15. There are five places in south suburban Patch towns where you can vote early.

Early Voting for the March 20 Presidential Primary Election is set to start Monday at five locations in Patch towns within south suburban Cook County.

Early voting also can be done at the clerk's downtown Chicago office, 69 West Washington St., and Cook County courthouses, according to Cook County Clerk David Orr, or any one of the 42 suburban sites listed on the clerk's website.

When: Feb. 27 through March 15. 

How: Early voters do not need a conflict or excuse to vote before election day, but they must have a government-issued photo ID such as a current driver's license, state ID, passport, or military ID. Voters must choose a party when casting a ballot in a primary election. 

What's on the ballot: President of the United States, representatives in Congress, state senators, state representatives, circuit court clerk, state supreme Court judges, and local referendums. 

Where: All suburban Cook County voters will receive an election notice in the mail that provides their closest Early Voting location, as well as their Election Day precinct. Locally, voters can cast ballots at any of these locations:

  • Chicago Heights City Hall
    1601 Chicago Road, Monday to Saturday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

At least in the Early Voting people will have to show a government issued photo ID. I can't think of anybody over 18 who wouldn't have an ID. Retired people had to show an ID to apply for medicare and SS. Poor people have to show an ID to apply for LINK 'food stamp' Card. You have to show an ID at the doctors office. People that don't have a drivers license still have State ID's. Je$$ie Jack$on $r. says that people don't have ID's. Nothing could be further from the truth.

There is a good book out about Je$$ie Jack$on $r.

It's a little troubling that, even as you post the title of a book about Jesse Jackson, you still spell it Jessie.

Sorry my mistake, here's the correct spelling:
Je$$e Jack$on

Turns out it was a minor crash, according to state police. No one was injured enough to require aRead More trip in an ambulance. Two cars were involved in the collision, which happened at about 2 p.m.

I'd also contact whichever bank has this in foreclosure. If they're the legal owners, then they'reRead More responsible. Maybe the threat of a lawsuit if someone gets sick or injured might prompt them to take action.
Concerned Citizen June 18, 2013 at 02:31 pm
The problem is that nobody knows or can locate the bank who owns this property. I have contacted aRead More friend of mine whom is a realtor and there saying it's owned by HUD! Well good luck getting in touch with them!
Concerned Citizen June 18, 2013 at 05:47 pm
Well I just ran into an inspector sent by the bank who entered the property and said that the coinsRead More have eaten through the ceiling of he living room! I knew it!!!

How are those cords that you pull, are they all stretched out?
A June 18, 2013 at 12:00 pm
no they are like new, it was barely used
Marni June 14, 2013 at 07:57 am
We too live in Parkside and I couldn't agree with you more! I love your sign! I have a three yearRead More old and I refuse to let him play on the last 15 feet of the driveway due to the speeding cars. Maybe a speed bump?!
dalygirl June 16, 2013 at 09:25 am
We've looked into a speed bump too. Make yourself a sign, call the Tinley Police and ask for theRead More electronic monitoring sign, call the village and complain, and be pro-active. Someone from the village saw my sign and has informed me that the village will be putting up speed limit signs and caution - kids playing signs this week. Good luck!!
