It is election day. Kankakee County Clerk Dan Hendrickson says polls are open across the county

Hendrickson says while you don’t need ID to vote in Illinois, you should take along two pieces of identification is you’ll be registering to vote today at your polling place (Hendrickson)
Hendrickson adds early voting numbers are pretty much right on par with numbers from recent mid-term elections

The only contested county-wide office on the ballot today is that of County Clerk where Hendrickson faces off against challenger Brian Vaughn. Voters in Bourbonnais Township are voting today on whether or not to eliminated the Township Road District. The Bourbonnais Library District has a referendum on the ballot as to both the Momence Fire Protection District and the Braidwood Fire Protection District. Polls close at seven tonight. We’ll have election night coverage right here starting just after seven.
