Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS)
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 5/7-3) (from Ch. 46, par. 7-3)
Sec. 7-3.
In determining the total vote of a political party, whenever
required by this Article 7, the test shall be the total vote cast by such
political party for its candidate who received the greatest number of
votes; provided however, that in applying this section to the vote cast for
any candidate for an office for which cumulative voting is permitted, the
total vote cast for such candidate shall be divided by that number which
equals the greatest number of votes that could lawfully be cast for such
candidate by one elector.
