polling stations
Ballot casting locations
Polling stations are designated locations where voters cast their ballots during elections.
Each voter is typically assigned to a specific polling station based on their registered address.
The term is more common in British English; Americans usually say polling places.
Volunteers staffed the polling stations from 7 a.m. until the polls closed.
