Where is my voting location?

Your polling place is assigned by your state or local election office from your home address, so ask them or look it up where you check your voter registration. USA.gov links every state’s election office. A map of where you stand now can’t tell you.

It comes from your home address, not where you are

USA.gov says your polling place is based on your residential address and that your name is on the roster only at your assigned location. The county, city or district this site shows for a point is not your precinct, so it can’t settle where you vote.

It can change between elections

Polling places, often schools and community centers, can move from one election to the next. Check with your state or local election office before Election Day, along with its hours.

Voting somewhere else

USA.gov notes that if you try to vote somewhere other than your assigned location, you may have to cast a provisional ballot and your vote may not count. If you have moved, update the address on your voter registration to be assigned a polling place near your new home.

If you need an accessible polling place

You have the right to vote at an accessible polling place. Tell your election office what you need; some accommodations have to be requested before Election Day.
