AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Election Day: Illinois voters cast ballots in closely watched governor and U.S. Senate races, while Chicago held its first election for a fully elected school board. Results were still coming in. Voting Access: Ballot shortages and equipment failures caused long waits at polling sites across Chicago, including Logan Square; the Board of Elections said it was investigating. Federal election monitors were also deployed to Chicago as part of a nationwide effort, drawing concerns about intimidation. Chicago Budget: City Council voted to direct a $75 million parking-meter payment to pension debt, dealing Mayor Brandon Johnson a setback in budget talks. Gun Law: An Illinois appeals court upheld a felony conviction under the state’s ban on gun possession by people with prior felony convictions.
