Kudos Google Maps: US Election day reminder & polling places for #Everyonein2016: 
From https://www.google.com/maps.
When you click the blue SHOW ME button, it sends you to a Google Search Results page with a "onebox" for finding your polling place:
And once you enter your address and press return or click the magnifying glass it will show you a map of where to vote with additional information.
In comparison:
* maps.bing.com: no such prompt
* www.mapquest.com: no such prompt
* maps.yahoo.com: redirects to a Yahoo Search for the word “maps”. I had no idea Yahoo Maps was shutdown (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yahoo!_Maps#Shutdown)
Well done Google with letting everyone (presumably in the US) know that “Election day is around the corner” and prompting everyone to “Make sure you know your polling place”.
Aside: At some point (recently) Google Maps switched their canonical URL from https://maps.google.com/ to https://www.google.com/maps, dropping yet another use of a subdomain.
Wikipedia entries updated a bit accordingly:
* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Maps
* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yahoo!_Maps
