Several Northwest suburban polling places change
The Cook County clerk's office Wednesday announced the relocation of several Northwest suburban polling places for Election Day Tuesday, Nov. 6.
Households affected by the changes will receive notification by postcard, the clerk's office said.
Though polling places are often housed in public buildings, changes can become necessary for a variety of reasons, including safety issues, construction projects and space constraints, officials said.
The newly announced moves include:
• Barrington Precinct 3 from Grove Avenue School to St. Michael's Episcopal Church, 647 Dundee Ave., Barrington.
• Elk Grove Precincts 9 and 51 from Elk Grove Township to Garden Terrace Banquets, 1000 Wellington Ave., Elk Grove Village.
• Hanover Precinct 37 from Brookside Clubhouse to Glenbrook Elementary School, 315 Garden Circle, Streamwood.
• Maine Precinct 47 from Leisure Center to Arndt Park Fieldhouse, 1990 White St., Des Plaines.
• Maine Precinct 73 from Huntington Apartments to Washington School, 2710 Golf Road, Glenview.
• Schaumburg Precinct 72 from Dunbar Lakes Condominiums to Fairview School, 375 Arizona Blvd., Hoffman Estates.
• Wheeling Precinct 5 from Olympic Indoor Swim Center to American Legion, 121 N. Douglas Ave., Arlington Heights.
• Wheeling Precincts 17 and 79 from Booth Tarkington School to Indian Trails Public Library, 355 Schoenbeck Road, Wheeling.
• Wheeling Precincts 31 and 69 from Olympic Indoor Swim Center to Arlington Heights Memorial Library, 500 N. Dunton Ave., Arlington Heights.
