How you vote is private, but whether you vote is public record. Be a voter so our community's voices can be heard.

Here's what you need to make your plan to vote.

1. When are you voting? Early voting is open from now until Sunday Oct. 31 -- or vote on Election Day, Tuesday Nov 2. Find voting hours here. What time of day will you go?

2. Where are you voting? Double-check the location of your early voting or Election Day pollsite.

3. How are you getting there? Will you walk, take the bus or subway, or drive?

4. BONUS: Who can you bring? Voting is how you make sure your community's voice is heard. Can you bring a family member, a friend, a neighbor or coworker to vote with you?

BE A VOTER AND MAKE SURE YOU ARE COUNTED.
