Make a plan to vote in Primary Election 2024

Have you made a plan to vote? March 19 will be an important primary election in Illinois, and we need our voices to be heard now more than ever. 

Make sure you’re prepared this election season by taking these 3 simple steps:

Check your voter registration

Have you recently moved, changed your name, or recently become eligible to vote? Make sure your voter registration information is up-to-date.  You can still register on Election Day if you’re not registered to vote.

Check Your Status

Learn about the candidates and decide who you will vote for

Not sure who to vote for? We got you covered! Planned Parenthood of Illinois Action has proudly endorsed pro-choice champions across the state. Endorsed candidates were selected based on their reproductive health care policies and commitment to protecting the health and rights of Illinoisans.

If you’re voting at your local polling place:

  • Know your voting plan before going to the polls.
    Doing your candidate research ahead of time will ensure that you can get in and out of your polling place as quickly as possible! Be prepared and download our voter's guide for endorsed candidates to bring with you.
  • Vote during non-peak hours.
    Mornings, lunch breaks, and evenings will likely be the busiest times at most polling places. When planning your trip to the polls, try to avoid these high-traffic times, if possible.
  • Bring your hand sanitizer and pen. You can also wear a face covering as well.
  • Respect the social distancing markers at your polling location.
