Voting start times vary by election and location. Here’s a quick guide to determine when voting begins for your specific race:

• Check your local election office website or state/county elections page for the official calendar, including when early voting starts and when polls open on Election Day.
• If you’re in the United States, most jurisdictions offer early in-person voting for several days or weeks before Election Day, with Election Day polls typically opening early in the morning (often around 6:00 AM to 7:00 AM) and closing in the evening (commonly 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM), depending on the jurisdiction.
• If you’re voting in another country, refer to national or regional electoral authority pages for precise dates, hours, and locations.

If you tell me your country, state/province, and the election you’re asking about (for example: “U.S., New York, General Election 2025”), I can give you the exact start dates and polling hours from official sources.
