Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the Election Code.  Requires the county board  to  approve      
   special  absentee  voting  panels  of  3  judges  each.  Provides that      
   absentee voters' ballots may be  tabulated  at  the  central  counting      
   location  after  the  polls  have  closed by a special absentee voting      
   panel.  States  that  absentee  voters'  ballots  returned  after  the      
   closing  of  the  polls  shall  be kept unopened for 2 months and then      
   destroyed in a like manner as the used ballots.  Allows each political      
   party,  candidate, and  qualified  civic  organization  to  have   one      
   pollwatcher present for each special absentee voting panel.
