Voting Information in Palos Park
Precinct News
The Cook County Clerk’s Office conducted an analysis of the County’s
voting precincts and eliminated approximately 350 small precincts by
consolidating them with other precincts. With more and more voters
casting early ballots and fewer people going to the polls on Election
Day, the time was right for combining precincts to save tax dollars.
Palos Park residents who were in Precinct 48 now become Precinct 46.
Precinct 46 voters will go to Palos Park Presbyterian Church for voting
as usual.
