Where Do Cast My Ballot?

If you are looking for individual polling locations, the best online resource I found is Vote411.org "powered by" the League of Women Voters. However, if you want to load your GPS with the coordinates of all the polling locations in your area, read on.

Using the Batch Geocoding Tool at GPSVisualizer.com you can covert a list of addresses to a GPX file that can be transfered to a compatible vehicle navigation system. Here's how:

First, you need an address list. For polling locations, addresses can be download from election authority web sites. Use the Vote411.org/ByStateResut site to locate voting information web sites by state.

Then, copy the address list and paste as input to the GPSVisualizer Batch Geocode input field. In this example, I used the polling location address list at South Carloina Precint information for Charleston County and created the GPs eXchage file that you can download below.
