    COOK COUNTY CLERK DAVID ORR 69 W. Washington, Suite 500, Chicago, Illinois 60602 TEL (312) 603-0996 FAX (312) 603-9788 WEB cookcountyclerk.com Dear Friends: The March 15, 2016 Presidential Primary shattered modern-day records going back more than 25 years. The popularity of initiatives such as Online Voter Registration and Election Day Registration, as well as registration and voting for 17-year-olds, proved there is a great desire by voters to take part in the electoral process. This was the first presidential election to include Election Day Registration and voting by 17-year- olds who will be 18-years-old by the General Election – offerings we found to be very popular with suburban Cook County voters. This 2016 Presidential Primary Post-Election Report takes a comprehensive look at the voting totals, trends and statistics during the March primary throughout suburban Cook County. Below is a sample size of the standout primary numbers: • Voting before Election Day – by mail, or during early voting and grace period voting – accounted for 22 percent of all ballots cast in this election. • Early Voting set a new primary record with 113,641 ballots cast in a Presidential Primary. • More than 23,000 suburban Cook County voters took advantage of Election Day Registration. • Nearly 4,400 17-year-olds voted, accounting for 62 percent of the 7,085 who registered to vote. • Donald Trump won 25 of the 30 Suburban Cook County Townships, garnering his best total in Stickney Township, with 62.1 percent of the vote. • Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders were separated by just nine votes in Norwood Park Township (Clinton: 1,859; Sanders: 1,850).

A Comparison of Selected Electoral Systems .................. 29 Executive Summary, Report on Political Representation and Alternative Electoral Systems I 3 4 FOREWORD In Spring 2000, the Institute of Government and Public Affairs at the University of Illinois created the Illinois Task Force on Political Representation and Alternative Electoral Systems. Governor Jim Edgar and Judge Abner Mikva served as co-chairs. The task force examined the effects of the change from cumulative to plurality voting in Illinois House elections, gathered information about alternative electoral systems that are used throughout the world, and considered how and how well those systems work in other regions of the country and world. With that information in hand, they brought together leaders from politics, the media, academe, business, and nonprofit organizations for the Illinois assembly on Political Representation and Alternative Electoral Systems. The assembly met to explore the pros and cons of various electoral systems as they might be used in Illinois House elections. I am happy to present you with the final report of the Illinois Assembly. This report is very timely. Work on reapportionment and redistricting of local, state, and federal legislative districts has already begun.

    ANNUAL REPORT 2005 CROSSROADS F U N D change, not charity Four decades later I am still uncomfortable with the credit given to me for starting the bus “ boycott. I would like [people] to know I was not the only person involved. I was just one of many who fought for freedom… As I look back on those days, it’s just like a dream. The only thing that bothered me was that we waited so long to make this protest “ and to let it be known wherever we go that all of us should be free and equal and have all opportunities that others should have. Rosa Parks WE DEDICATE THIS ANNUAL REPORT TO ROSA PARKS. In school we learned Rosa Parks was too tired to give up her seat to a white rider, that her long day working as a seamstress left her too exhausted to move, that weariness is what motivated her defiance of the law in segregated Montgomery, Alabama, 1955. Our schoolbooks obscured the real story, the real Rosa Parks. Ms. Parks was an evolving community activist. She served as Secretary of the Montgomery NAACP from 1943 to 1957 and attended the Highlander Folk School, an education center for workers’ rights and racial equality in Tennessee only six months before she sat on that particular bus. She was not the first black bus rider to have been arrested in Montgomery for refusing to move. Rather, she became central to a campaign organized by black activists, including herself, to create fundamental change on the local level, change that would have a catalytic effect on the civil rights movement in our country.
