AI Summary

  • Increases the maximum number of registered voters per election precinct from 1,200 to 1,800 for counties with fewer than 3,000,000 inhabitants, matching the current standard for larger counties (Cook County)

  • Eliminates the two-tier precinct size system that previously required smaller precincts (1,200 voters) in less populous counties and larger precincts (1,800 voters) only in counties with 3,000,000+ inhabitants

  • Requires County Boards to divide precincts at regular June meetings or adjourned July meetings, with authority to redivide, consolidate, or readjust precincts as needed

  • Mandates precinct boundary changes after each decennial census following congressional and legislative redistricting to maintain the 1,800-voter target

  • Applies statewide to all precincts, including those using voting machines or electronic voting systems, with exceptions for apartment buildings where more than 1,800 registered voters reside
