You vote in the precinct in which you reside on Election Day. When you register or update your registration you will receive a postcard indicating the polling place serving your precinct. 

You must bring identification to the polls in order to verify identity.  Identification may include a current and valid photo identification, a military identification that shows your name and current address, or a copy of a current utility bill, bank statement, government check, paycheck, or other government document, other than a notification from the Board of Elections, that shows your name and current address. 

If you do not provide one of these documents, you will still be able to vote by providing the last four digits of your social security number and by casting a provisional ballot.  If you do not have any of the above forms of identification, including a social security number, you will still be able to vote by signing an affirmation swearing to your identity under penalty of election falsification and by casting a provisional ballot.
