Poll opening times vary by state and even by county or municipality, but most polling places in the United States open around 7:00 a.m. local time and stay open until 7:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. local time on Election Day. Some locations may open earlier or later, and a few areas have different hours for certain elections or local referenda. To vote in person, you should verify your specific polling place and hours for Election Day in your locality. What to do next
- Check your state or local election office website for your exact polling place and hours.
- If you have a specific location (city, county, or state), I can look up the precise opening and closing times for that area and give you the exact information.
