Monday is officially the last day of early voting in Illinois ahead of the Election Day for 2024 — and in many parts of the region, its the busiest.
“Monday is generally our busiest early voting days,” said Chicago Board of Elections’ Max Bever.
Sunday, long lines wrapped around Chicago’s Voting Supersite at 191 North Clark Street. Similar turnout was expected Monday, Bever said.
According to Bever, approximately 40,000 people typically come out to vote early the day before Election Day, with the CBOE expecting to see “similar numbers this year.”

Chicago officials noted that two-hour wait times could be expected for early voting sites on the northside and near the lake front Monday, as those locations have easier access to public transit.
Shorter lines were expected on the west side, the CBOE said.
As Election Day — that’s Tuesday, Nov. 5 — approaches, here’s what to know about early voting Monday.
