Vermilion County residents who, due to a disability, are unable to appear in person to register to vote may contact the County Clerk’s Voter Registration Department at 217-554-1900 for assistance. The office can arrange for in-home registration services. Registration forms are also available by mail or may be printed from
the County Clerk’s website www.vercounty.org. Paperless online voter registration is also available on the
same website under “County Clerk,” “Voter Information,” “Online Voter Registration.”
The last day for Vermilion County residents to register to vote or file changes of name or address prior to the
March 19, 2024 General Primary Election under traditional Illinois voter registration is Tuesday, February 20th.
Grace Period registration and voting will be conducted in person at the County Clerk’s office from February 21st
through March 19th. Grace period registration requires two forms of identification, at least one of which includes
a correct current address.
Illinois law provides for early voting & vote by mail for all registered voters, without the need to specify a reason
for doing so. Those who wish to vote by mail may request an application from the County Clerk’s office as soon
as possible. A paperless online application for an early ballot is also available on our website. The last day in
which a ballot may be mailed to a voter is Thursday, March 14th. In-person early voting is available at the
County Voting Center beginning Thursday, February 8th through Monday, March 18th.
Voting aids and assistance in marking the ballot are provided in all Vermilion County polling locations. In
addition, special voting equipment designed to meet the needs of physically challenged voters is available in
every polling place.
For further information about voting by mail, early voting, and the FVT-TS, please call Carrie Wilson, Assistant
Chief Deputy County Clerk / Supervisor of Elections at 217-554-1911 or email ccelections@vercountyil.gov.
