What does the Illinois State Board of Elections actually do? 🤔

✅ Oversees elections, certifies results, reviews petitions, and supports local officials
❌ Does NOT run polling places, issue ballots, or prosecute crimes
Learn the difference—know how your elections work. 🗳️

[Illinois SBE @illinoissbe]

Today is the deadline for local election authorities to certify their results. 🗳️

Certification is a key step to ensure every vote is counted and results are finalized. ✔️

Don't be a fool - safeguards prevent home-printed or photocopied mail-in ballots from being counted. #AprilFools

[Illinois SBE @illinoissbe]

We're not fools. We know the importance of safeguarding the transmission of unofficial election results from polling places. Access to that equipment is like Fort Knox. #AprilFools

[Illinois SBE @illinoissbe]

Don't be fooled, ghosts aren't casting ballots in Illinois elections. The authorities are on top of keeping the voter rolls clean of deceased voters. #AprilFoolsDay

🚨If you haven't returned your Vote By Mail ballot yet, don’t risk a late postmark! Make sure your vote counts:
💌 Request a manual postmark at the post office
💌 Use a secure drop box
💌 Deliver directly to your election office

[Illinois SBE @illinoissbe]

Important information for vote-by-mail voters 🚨
Mail postmark rules have changed. Ballots are now postmarked when processed, not when you drop them in the mailbox—this can cause 1–2 day delays.
