District 131 Reminds Students: Election Judges Needed For Nov. 3
Schools and colleges are being asked to notify students about the opportunity to serve as an election judge.
Anticipating a shortage of election judges, Public Act 101-0642 makes several changes to state law aimed at encouraging students to serve in the role of election judge. In addition to specifically mandating that Election Day will be a school holiday, the law provides that election judges may be as young as 16 if they are otherwise qualified. Schools and colleges are being asked to notify students about the opportunity to serve as an election judge, as well as the qualifications for serving. Those interested can learn more and apply online.
