Upcoming Events and other ways you can get involved

If you requested a Vote by Mail ballot, election officials will be mailing them in the coming weeks. Of course, you can mail them back, but did you know that you can drop them at a secure dropbox in the county you’re registered in? Hint: if you’re in Kane County, the City of Elgin building is a dropbox location. The Tribune is updating a handy map of all the locations, so you can see where to go if you live in Cook County or DuPage County! (Be careful though and only drop it in the county on your ballot!)

Where to securely drop off your mail-in ballot in Chicago and the suburbs Use our map and listings to help find the drop box closest to you in the Chicago area.

The League of Women Voters is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion in all aspects of our work and organization. We believe that all people should have access to information in whatever format best meets their needs and we strive to meet this standard. We are disappointed that we do not have the capacity to present a multilingual candidate forum and are working with our state League to remedy this issue for future forums. The League of Women Voters of the Elgin Area is proud of our long history of providing candidate forums as a service to the community, a service that benefits candidates as well as voters. Our goal is to always be better, and so perhaps we can find a solution for the future. If you would like to help us work toward this goal, please join us.
