To make it easier to find
information about how and where to vote in the US elections, Google on
Friday launched election-related features that show the voting locations
closest to you.
If you search for things like "early voting
locations" or "ballot drop boxes near me", Google will show details on
where you can vote in person or return your mail-in ballot, whether you
are voting early or on Election Day.
It will also include helpful reminders, like to bring your ballot completed and sealed, Google said.
"Just
as easily, you'll soon be able to ask, 'Hey Google, where do I vote?'
and Google Assistant will share details on where to vote nearby on your
Assistant-enabled phone, smart speaker or Smart Display," Yunhan Xu,
Product Manager at Google wrote in a blog post.
"After you've
selected a voting location or ballot drop box in your area, you can
click through from Google Search or Google Assistant to Google Maps for
quick information about how far it is, how to get there, and voting
hours."
Similarly, if you search for your voting location in
Google Maps you'll have easy access to the feature in Search to help you
confirm where you can cast your vote, the company said.
