McClellan McHenry County Clerk County Clerk Clerk Over the last couple of years we have had requests from school districts to find new polling places for the safety of the children. We have also had private entities requesting removal of polling places from their facilities for their own reasons. The private entities we have no control over and no statutory requirement to mandate a polling location at their facilities. That being said, in an effort to create efficiencies and respect the wishes of those requesting to be removed, we have been working on consolidation of our polling places. By working together using current polling places that have large enough spaces and adequate parking for at least two, if not more precincts at one location, we have been able to change 38 locations. We will be conducting a pilot program for March 20, 2018 Primary Election. I have enjoyed fulfilling the responsibility that my constituents have placed in me. I have made many upgrades to the election process to save tax payers money, and automated the office to better serve McHenry County and all who live here.

  • 2018 Scorecard
    2018 ENVIRONMENTAL SCORECARD Dear Reader, Every year, the Illinois Environmental Council releases a scorecard assigning a percentage score to state legislators based on how they voted on bills affecting the environment. This year, we are pleased to award a record number of 100% scores, a development reflecting the fact that legislators increasingly ask IEC’s lobbyists if bills will be considered on the scorecard before deciding their votes. While breaking this record is a positive development, it’s tempered by the fact that many of the environmental community’s priority bills did not get a vote this session. For example, an important bill to stop federal rollbacks of Illinois’ environmental laws passed the Illinois Senate, but did not make it out of the House Environment Committee. Unfortunately this was the case for many of our bills in House Environment, which, despite having an excellent chair this year in Representative Carol Sente, a majority of the committee have strong industry ties and hold anti-environment positions. It is also still the case that many environmental priorities supported by a majority of the General Assembly, and Illinoisans generally, would be vetoed by Governor Rauner if passed. In the last two years, and at the direction of the Governor, executive agencies opposed bills that would have increased regulation on livestock operations, provided standing in court for those impacted by pollution-causing projects, and required replacing all lead service lines. Regardless of who is in the Governor’s mansion after the 2018 elections, IEC will continue to pursue each of these policies. With an unprecedented number of retirements in the General Assembly, we hope the 2018 Environmental Scorecard will serve to recognize the legislators who have lead but are leaving and inspire a new class of leaders.

  • First Reading
    First Reading ILLINOIS GENERAL ASSEMBLY LEGISLATIVE RESEARCH UNIT VOLUME 26, NO. 2 NOVEMBER 2012 has held as many as 40 Senate seats (although the Senate Dems Sweep had only 51 members at that time). National and Illinois House Democrats gained 7 seats, for a veto-proof major- ity of 71 (60.2%). This will be the first time since 1991- 92 (and only the third time after the 1920s) when one Elections party has had over three-fifths of House seats. Also, the upcoming General Assembly will be the first since 1927- In a year when national election results favored Demo- 28 in which one party has had a three-fifths majority in crats, they saw even stronger gains in Illinois. Democrats each house. added more seats in the General Assembly than most ob- servers had expected, and will have veto-proof majorities Thirteen members of the 98th General Assembly will re- in both houses of the 98th General Assembly. They also turn after being appointed to the 97th General Assembly; picked up seats in Illinois’ Congressional delegation.

A proposed consti- (continued on p. 13) tutional amendment to make it harder to increase public pension benefits was favored by a majority of those voting on it, but not by enough to be adopted.

  • June 1, 2018 Open Letter from the Reproductive Freedom Leadership Council Regarding President Trump's Decision to Limit Title
    June 1, 2018 Open Letter from the Reproductive Freedom Leadership Council Regarding President Trump’s Decision to Limit Title X Family Planning Funding As members of the Reproductive Freedom Leadership Council (RFLC), a cohort of 274 state legislators representing 43 states, we oppose the latest effort from the Trump administration to roll back reproductive rights and harm women’s health. President Trump’s proposed rule to block access to health care under Title X, our nation’s birth control and reproductive health program, and deny women information about their full reproductive health care options is unacceptable, and we stand united in opposition to this decision. President Trump’s gag rule would block health care providers from receiving federal Title X funding if they provide abortion care or offer referrals to other providers of abortion services. We’ve borne witness to the harmful impacts of the over 400 restrictions on abortion that have passed in states since 2011, and know that creating additional barriers for patients seeking access to birth control and other services from their trusted reproductive health care providers does us all a grave disservice. We see this gag rule for what it is: a clear attempt to take away our rights, make both abortion care and birth control harder to access, and drive yet another wedge between health care providers and their patients – all to pay back a political promise President Trump made to the anti-abortion lobby. We believe it is our duty as elected officials to make it easier, not harder, for people to get the health care they need, including birth control, cancer screenings, STD testing and treatment, and general women’s health exams.

  • Superpac and Independent Expenditures Summary010913
    Big Money, Big Risks A Summary of SuperPAC and Independent Expenditures in Illinois’ 2012 General Election I. Introduction 2 II. Groups Making Uncoordinated Expenditures 5 Independent Expenditure Committees Other Political Committees that Reported Independent Expenditures III. Candidates' and Voters' Experience of Uncoordinated Spending 13 Effectiveness of Independent Expenditures Independent Expenditures as a Voice in the Conversation IV. Recommendations 25 Require Disaggregation of Expenditures Made in Respect to Multiple Races or Candidates Redefine "Coordination" and "Independence" in the Context of the Risk of Corruption Require Disclosure from Politically Active Non-Profits Require Federal PACs Making Expenditures in the Days Before an Election to File Disclosure Reports on Par with State and Local PACs V. Methodology 35 A report by the Illinois Campaign for Political Reform, with assistance from the Sunshine Project I. Introduction Recent changes to Illinois’ election code have affected how certain expenditures are reported. Prior to the 2009 changes1, all spending in connection with a candidate was to be reported to the candidate as an in-kind contribution. The 2009 law, effective in 2011, directed that spending that is not coordinated with a candidate should instead be reported as an independent expenditure. Spending which is coordinated with a candidate is reported as a contribution, subject to limits. Several groups engaged in independent expenditures in the 2011 municipal elections and the 2012 General Primary. In May of this year, the General Assembly again amended the Election Code to provide for committees that are dedicated to Independent Expenditures, and so are not subject to contribution limits. This bill was signed into law in July and was in effect for the 2012 General Election.
