CREATION OF THE ILLINOIS STATE BOARD OF ELECTIONS AND OTHER ELECTION FRAUD LEGISLATION On September 10, 1972, the Chicago Tribune published the first in a series of articles on widespread election fraud in Cook County, Illinois and Chicago in particular.' The investigation uncovered some 838 vio- lations of the Illinois Election Code2 in 572 of the city's 3,205 pre- cincts. Because of the limited nature of the investigation,8 it was specu- lated that only a small percentage of the infractions had been discovered and reported to the public. The most common violations consisted of forged signatures on regis- tration applications, "ghost" voting,4 and the practice of having regis- tered Democrats appointed as Republican judges. As a result of the Tribune investigation, a special standing committee on election fraud was named by the Illinois General Assembly to study election practices in Illinois and to prevent future irregularities.
