Where do I vote?

How polling locations are determined

Election offices divide cities and counties into voting precincts, often based on neighborhoods or voting districts. Each precinct is assigned a specific polling place — usually somewhere central and accessible, like a school, library, community center, or fire station.

Your precinct (and therefore your polling place) is tied to your home address. Two people on the same street might vote at different locations if they fall into different precincts, and your polling place can change between elections if boundaries are redrawn or a location becomes unavailable — which is why it's worth checking before every election rather than assuming it's the same as last time.

Many areas also offer early voting sites (which may differ from your Election Day polling place and are often open to anyone in the county, not just your precinct) and ballot drop-off locations for mail ballots.
