Champaign County puts out the call for election judges for April 4

Tuesday, March 28 is the deadline for formal announcement of polling locations for the April 4 consolidated local elections in Illinois. In Champaign County, the county clerk's office says the number of polling places will depend on how many election judges they can recruit. County Clerk Aaron Ammons says as of right now, Champaign County is well short of the number of judges he would like to have.

Tom Kacich | Fewer polling places for the upcoming consolidated elections

Instead of the 86 polling places that were used in Champaign County for the November general election, Clerk Aaron Ammons has cut the number nearly in half for the April 6 consolidated election where voters will chose municipal, school district and other local offices.
Consolidated elections typically draw fewer voters than fall elections and state law allows election authorities to âclusterâ polling places in such elections. It will save the county an estimated $52,000 (for both the Feb. 23 primary and the April vote) and potentially expose fewer election judges to the coronavirus, Ammons said.
While more than 96,000 people voted in the Nov. 6 general election, the 2017 consolidated election attracted just 26,865 voters. There were even fewer in 2019: 17,266.

Dispute over filling county board vacancy continuing even after swearing-in

URBANA â A day after she tried twice to block the Champaign County Board from filling a vacant seat, county Executive Darlene Kloeppel said Friday that she was preparing a written veto of the boardâs vote to approve its newest member, Cameron Raab of Champaign.
Kloeppel said she told the board Thursday evening that she was vetoing its unanimous vote approving Raab to fill the District 6 seat vacated by Mike Ingram, who resigned after being elected recorder of deeds in November.
Kloeppelâs oral veto was ultimately ignored.
Stateâs Attorney Julia Rietz warned Kloeppel that her action could be viewed as contemptuous of a court order issued earlier in the day. County Clerk Aaron Ammons swore Raab in, and he was seated for the Thursday night board meeting.
