Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS)
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 5/24-1.1) (from Ch. 46, par. 24-1.1)
Sec. 24-1.1.
The county board of each county having a population of
35,000 or more, with respect to all elections for which the county board
or the county clerk is charged with the duty of providing materials and
supplies, and each board of election commissioners in a municipality
having a population of 35,000 or more with respect to elections under
its jurisdiction, must provide either voting machines in accordance with
this Article or electronic voting systems in accordance with Article 24A
for each precinct for all such elections except as provided in Section
24-1.2 except in elections held pursuant to the provisions of Section 12
of Article VI of the Constitution relating to retention of judges in
office, in which event, the special ballot containing the propositions
on the retention of judges may be placed on the voting machines or
devices. For purposes of this Section 24-1.1, the term "population" does
not include persons prohibited from voting by Section 3-5 of this Act.
Before voting machines or electronic voting systems are introduced,
adopted or used in any precinct or territory at least 2 months public
notice must be given before the date of the first election wherein such
machines are to be used. The election authority shall publish the notice
at least once in one or more newspapers published within its
jurisdiction in which the election is held. If there is no such
newspaper, the notice shall be published in a newspaper published in the
county and having a general circulation within such political
subdivision of this State. The notice shall be substantially as follows:
Notice is hereby given that on (give date), at (give
place where election is held) in the county of .... an election will
be held for (give name of office to be filled) at which voting
machines will be used.
Dated at .... on (insert date).
The notice referred to herein shall be given only at the first election at
which such voting machines or electronic voting systems are used.
