Since the issue of where and when to vote is so sensitive, important, and subject to fraud and suppression attacks, perhaps it might be best to direct people to the authoritative source rather than aggregate them.
Even if you mean well but get it wrong you could conceivably be on the hook for 1 year in prison for every person you misled.
Also it is just the "American Way" that most functions are decentralized. Since there is no central agency involved it is the default that you go to your county or state.
aggregated COVID-19 case data on a volunteer basis in the US. It is a lot of web scraping plus elbow grease and you could do the same for US voting locations but it's a big job and big responsibility like adopting a puppy.

Yes, to echo that, voting rules and procedures are left to each state to decide.
