Knowing Your Ward and Precinct
In order to vote in person, you must present yourself at the correct polling place (determined by your precinct and ward) on Election Day. A poll worker can only admit into a voting booth a registered voter whose name appears on the roster from that precinct. It is therefore essential to know the ward and precinct in which you live.
