Parent-led awareness effort for District 45
Now the community gets a second chance to be heard.
District 45 voters will have another opportunity to decide the future of our schools this November.
The first vote made one thing clear: this community is paying attention. It also showed how important it is that every voter understands what is at stake before casting a ballot.
This is not the election to sit out.
This is not the issue to assume someone else will handle.
This is the moment to get informed, make a plan, and make your voice heard.
If you care about class sizes, teachers, student support, programs, neighborhood schools, and the long-term strength of this community, your vote matters.
As official election information becomes available, this page will be updated with links to:
- The official election date
- The official ballot question
- The official sample ballot lookup
- Official early voting information
- Official vote-by-mail information
- Official Election Day voting information
Voting details can vary by address, so voters should always confirm their personal voting information through official election sources.
Vote early. Remove the risk.
Life gets busy. Work runs late. Kids get sick. Schedules change.
Early voting gives you a way to cast your ballot before Election Day, so one unexpected problem does not keep your voice out of the decision.
If you already know where you stand, voting early is one of the most effective things you can do.
It also gives the campaign more time to focus on reaching voters who still need information.
Before you go, confirm official early voting dates, hours, and locations through DuPage County.
Vote by mail
Vote by mail if that is the safest way to make sure your vote counts.
For some voters, getting to the polls is not easy. Work schedules, transportation, health, caregiving, travel, and family responsibilities can all get in the way.
Vote by mail can help voters participate without waiting until Election Day, but vote by mail only works if you plan ahead.
If you want to vote by mail, check the official process early so you understand how to request, complete, return, and track your ballot.
check your registration
Do not assume you are ready to vote. Confirm it.
Before you make your voting plan, make sure your registration is current.
This matters especially if you have recently moved, changed your name, changed addresses within the district, or have not voted in a while.
A few minutes now can prevent a problem later.
Use the official voter lookup tool to confirm your registration status and voting information.
Voting Plan Checklist
Make your plan before the last-minute rush.
A vote only counts if it gets cast.
Use this checklist now:
- Confirm you are registered
- Choose how you will vote: early, by mail, or on Election Day
- Confirm official dates, locations, and deadlines
- Put your voting plan on your calendar
- Remind at least three other District 45 voters to check their information
The first vote was close. This time, we cannot afford confusion, delay, or silence.
