Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

10 ILCS 5/24A-5

(10 ILCS 5/24A-5) (from Ch. 46, par. 24A-5)

Sec. 24A-5.

In precincts where an electronic voting system is used,
a sufficient number of voting booths shall be provided for the use of
such systems according to the requirements determined by the State Board
of Elections, and the booths shall be arranged in the same manner as
provided for use with paper ballots.  Each such booth shall be placed
so that the entrance to each booth faces a wall in such a manner that no
judge of election or pollwatcher is able to observe a voter casting a ballot.

Whenever at a primary election at which an electronic voting system
is used there is also an election for officers or on propositions in
which qualified voters have the right to vote without participating in
the primary of any party, a separate voting booth may be provided for
those voters who do not wish to participate in the primary of any party.
Such determination shall be made by resolution of the county board,
municipal board of election commissioners or county board
of election commissioners, whichever is applicable.  Unless paper
ballots are used for such other election, such separate voting booth
shall contain a ballot label booklet containing only those officers and
propositions on which such voters are entitled to vote.
