Mail Ballots Early. Cook County Clerk alerted voters recently that changes in postmarking policy could mean ballots mailed on or near Election Day might not count. She offered voters suggestions on how to safely vote by mail:

• Do not wait until the final days – or Election Day – to mail your ballot.
• If possible, bring your ballot directly to a local post office as far in advance as possible and request a postmark to help ensure timely processing.
• Beginning March 2, when Early Voting begins, voters may drop their mail ballots at any of the 55 secure mail ballot drop box locations that will be available throughout suburban Cook County. The closest drop boxes to H-F are at Prairie State College, 202 S. Halsted St., Chicago Heights, and Markham Courthouse, 16501 S. Kedzie Ave., Markham.
