Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process.
Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as
Public
Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the
Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes,
statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect.
If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has
not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already
been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes
made to the current law.
(10 ILCS 5/5-7.03) (from Ch. 46, par. 5-7.03)
Sec. 5-7.03.
The State Board of Elections shall design a registration
record card which, except as otherwise provided in this Section, shall
be used in triplicate by all election authorities
in the State, except those election authorities adopting a computer-based
voter registration file authorized under Section 5-43. The Board shall prescribe the form and specifications, including
but not limited to the weight of paper, color and print of such cards.
Such cards shall contain boxes or spaces for the information required under
Sections 5-7 and 5-28.1 of this Code; provided, that such cards shall also
contain a box or space for the applicant's social security number, which
shall be required to the extent allowed by law but in no case shall the
applicant provide fewer than the last 4 digits of the social security
number, and a box for
the applicant's telephone number, if available.
Except for those election authorities adopting a computer-based voter
registration file authorized under Section 5-43, the original and duplicate
cards shall respectively constitute the master
file and precinct binder registration records of the voter. A copy shall be given to the applicant upon completion of his or her
registration
or completed transfer of registration.
Whenever a voter moves to another precinct within the same election
jurisdiction or to another election jurisdiction in the State, such voter
may transfer his or her registration by presenting his or her copy to the election authority or a deputy registrar. If such voter is not
in possession of or has lost his or her copy, he or she
may
effect a transfer of registration by executing an Affidavit of Cancellation
of Previous Registration. In the case of a transfer of registration to a
new election jurisdiction, the election authority shall transmit the
voter's copy or such affidavit to the election
authority of the
voter's former election jurisdiction, which shall immediately cause the
transmission of the voter's previous registration card to the voter's new
election authority. No transfer of registration to a new election
jurisdiction shall be complete until the voter's old election authority
receives notification.
Deputy registrars shall return all copies of registration record cards or
Affidavits of
Cancellation of Previous Registration to the election authority by first-class mail within 2 business days or personal delivery within 7
days after the receipt thereof, except that such copies
or
Affidavits of Cancellation of Previous Registration received by the deputy
registrars between the 35th and 28th day preceding an election
shall be
returned by the deputy registrars to the election authority within 48 hours
after receipt. The deputy registrars shall return the copies or
Affidavits
of Cancellation of Previous Registration received by them on the 28th day
preceding an election to the election authority within 24 hours after receipt
thereof.
