Officials say Chicago and suburban Cook County is on pace to match or exceed 2018 numbers, with early voting surpassing vote-by-mail.
Over 100,000 voters have already cast their ballots in DuPage County, where there are several competitive races.While early voting has been popular this year and voting options have expanded, officials expect Election Day to attract even more voters."I just don't like the lines waiting for the last minute. I'm not a procrastinator and I think this election is very, very important," said early voter Elois Sharp.
"Even my father, I feel like, I've never heard my father really talk about voting before. But he texted all of us saying, 'Make sure you're going to go vote,'" said fellow voter Kristen Lyons. Early voting locations will open again Sunday at 10 a.m. and stay open until 4 p.m. in Chicago and suburban Cook County. However, other counties have varying hours.
