Voting house
A voting house, sometimes called an election house, polling house, or a voting hall,[1] is a type of American vernacular architecture used by local governments in rural areas of the United States as a polling station. Dedicated voting houses have been used since the second half of the 19th century.[2][3] The advent of modern voting machines contributed to the obsolescence of voting houses.[4][5][6]
