Suburban Cook County includes all municipalities except Chicago. A precinct, which is also called an election district, is an administrative unit for the election department to distribute election materials and resources, conduct elections, and to report election results. Each precinct has a specific polling place where its residents go to vote. Sometimes several precincts will use the same polling place
