Voters will head to the polls on Election Day this week to cast ballots in a wide variety of races, including the presidency and other high-profile battles.
Illinois voters will choose judges and vote on a series of advisory questions on their ballots, while Indiana voters will choose a new governor and a new senator, among other races.
Here is a rundown of when polls will open in both states.
Illinois
Under Illinois state law, polls open at 6 a.m. CST on Election Day, and remain open until 7 p.m.
Voters who are in line at 7 p.m. will be allowed to cast ballots, according to Illinois law.
Residents who would like to register to vote can do so on Election Day, but must go to a polling place that offers grace-period voter registration. A tool to find information on those polling places can be found on the Illinois Board of Elections’ website.

Indiana
