Governor signs mail ballot, curbside voting expansion into law Raymon Troncoso and Sarah Mansur Capitol News Illinois SPRINGFIELD – Gov. JB Pritzker signed into law Friday a measure that expands vote-by-mail and curbside voting for all future elections. House Bill 1871, now law effective immediately, revises the state election code to allow election authorities to install drop box sites where voters can submit mail ballots without postage before and on Election Day. Election officials can also allow for curb-side voting for individuals to cast ballots from their car under the supervision of election judges from both parties and poll watchers. The law, introduced in the Senate by state Sen. Julie Morrison, D-Lake Forest, would also require election authorities to accept mail-in ballots with insufficient or no postage.
