Vote where you can meet, greet and get to know candidates who make decisions with the biggest impact on Naperville. Become familiar with elected officials up close, practicing protocols. Thank you. Remember! Follow local protocols to remain safe. Wear a mask. Keep your distance. Wash your hands often, but never, ever wash away your commonsense. A few campaign notes: If more than 16 candidates had filed for any of the the four available seats by Dec. 21, 2020, a Primary would be held in February 2021. Also, taking out a petition packet does not necessarily mean it will be returned by that packet-picker-upper. Registered voters may sign more than one petition if they live in the City of Naperville. Also, residents who live in unincorporated Naperville may not vote for City Council members.
