Today is Primary Day to determine which candidates will represent the Democratic and Republican parties on the ballot in November. Polls open at 6:00am and close at 7:00pm. If you are in line at 7:00pm to vote, please remain in line as the polls cannot close until everyone has voted. Results will trickle in through the evening on the Kane County Clerk’s website.
Join us for our monthly meetings on the fourth Tuesday of each month. We discuss township politics, election events, candidates, as well as committee initiatives. These meetings are open to the public.
Hybrid meetings starting in February 2023. 40 people allowed in person. Zoom for attendees beyond that. Details coming soon.

Join the Elgin Township Democrats in Elgin’s Fourth of July Parade!
The parade steps off Monday, July 4th at 9am at Slade and Douglas Avenue. Please join the Elgin Dems float by 8:30am.
The Elgin Dems will be staged on Grove Avenue at GROVE A. This should be the section of Grove Ave between Slade and Lincoln. (You can ask a gate captain at N Grove Ave and Ann St for directions to GROVE A if you need them.)
Dress for the weather and wear an Elgin / Kane County Democrats or candidate shirt if you have one. Signs are encouraged as well.
(Do you have a friend who feels they need to march too? Invite them along to meet with like minded people. The camaraderie and conversation with others who try to make a positive difference can help.)

In light of the mass shooting in Highland Park, we are once again called to join in solidarity. Join us at the Kane County Courthouse in Downtown Geneva this Wednesday night for a candlelight vigil with speakers including elected officials, candidates, and activists.
This gun violence has to stop, and we cannot keep saying “it can’t happen here” because Highland Park is just a drive away and what happened there can happen here. We need change and to make our voices heard. Enough is enough.
