Note: Illinois varies. Most counties have started early voting. But not Cook County (pop. 5million+). City of Chicago early voting starts @ 2 downtown sites Oct 1. Suburban Cook County early voting starts @ 6 sites Oct 7. Both Chicago & suburban Cook offer greatly expanded early voting sites Oct 19.
