To find where to vote, you’ll need to check your local election office or official electoral website with your address or ZIP/postcode. Instructions vary by country and region, but the general steps below will point you in the right direction. What to do
- Enter your address or ZIP/postcode on your country’s official election website or election office portal to locate your polling place.
- If you’re voting in the U.S., look for the “Polling Place” or “Find your polling place” tool on your state or local election official site; you can also check early voting centers and ballot drop-off locations if available.
- If you’re voting in another country, search for “Find out where to vote” plus your country name, then follow the official portal’s prompts (you may need your national ID number or a registration detail if required locally).
- If online lookup isn’t possible, contact your local election office or city/county clerk’s office by phone or in person to confirm your polling place and voting times.
Tips for accuracy
- Bring proof of registration if required in your area, along with any identification specified by local election rules.
- Check voting hours for Election Day and any early voting periods, as these can differ by jurisdiction.
- If you recently moved or changed your name, verify your registration status before heading out.
