(105 ILCS 5/5-2.1) (from Ch. 122, par. 5-2.1)
Sec. 5-2.1. Eligible Voters: For the purposes of this Article persons
who are qualified to vote in school elections shall be eligible to vote
for the trustees of schools who have jurisdiction over the elementary school
district or unit school district in which the person resides.
If the application of this Section results in an elector
voting for trustees of a school township in which he does not reside
because the elementary or unit school district crosses township boundaries
and has been assigned to the jurisdiction of the trustees of an adjoining
township, that elector shall also be eligible to vote for the trustees of
the township within which he resides. Moreover, an elector who resides in a high school district that crosses township boundaries and has been assigned to the jurisdiction of the trustees of an adjoining township shall be eligible to vote for both the trustees of the township in which he or she resides and the trustees of the township having jurisdiction over the high school district in which he or she resides.
