Are you registered to vote? If not, the Township Clerk can register you, so you can exercise your right to vote.

Citizens who will be 18 years of age prior to the next election are eligible to register to vote. You must provide two pieces of identification, one bearing your current address. Previously registered voters who have moved within Lake County should update their voting record with their new address.

You may register in the Town Clerk’s office up to 1 month preceding an election.
Registration again resumes two days after an election
