Early voting is now open – cast your ballot today!

The Illinois governor's race is extremely close. Several polls have shown that Governor Pat Quinn and anti-worker billionaire Bruce Rauner are statistically tied.

So it's no stretch to suggest that every single vote is critically important. Who knows – your vote may be the one that breaks the tie. And you don't have to wait til Election Day to cast it.

Early Voting starts Monday, October 20, and continues through Sunday, November 2.

With Early Voting, you can vote on a day and time that's most convenient for you. No reason is required.

We know what Bruce Rauner will try to do if he's elected. Rauner would lay off workers, cut wages, freeze pensions, privatize public services and, like Wisconsin's Scott Walker, try to wipe out collective bargaining rights. He's said so himself, time and again.

We can't look back after the election and regret what we didn't do. Please do your part and Vote Early.
