Get out the Vote! I hope everyone takes a few minutes of their busy day to go and vote in this election. Algonquin Township covers about 1/3 of McHenry County, considering how large Algonquin Township is very few people actually vote. I tried to change that by walking precincts, and meeting my neighbors. a great website to get up to date reports is mcvote,org, you can also find your precinct and voting place.
