Application users can input their registered home address to find their polling place for election day on November 2. The map-based results are pulled from Google's polling place locator.

There's nothing all that impressive about the application and it currently seems to be experiencing a few bugs, but we appreciate Facebook's attempt to eliminate friction from the voting experience and encourage members to get out and vote.

In addition, mobile users can also try the Pew Center's HTML5-optimized mobile site to locate their polling place while on the go. It also hails from the Voting Information Project and provides users with official data from each state.
