AN ACT to amend the School Code by amending Section
9-11.2.
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly:
Section 1. The School Code is amended by changing
Section 9-11.2 as follows:
(105 ILCS 5/9-11.2) (from Ch. 122, par. 9-11.2)
Sec. 9-11.2. For all school districts electing
candidates to a board of education in a manner other than at
large, candidates who file nominating petitions for a full
term shall be grouped together by area of residence as
follows:
(1) by congressional townships, or
(2) according to incorporated or unincorporated areas.
For all school districts electing candidates to a board
of education in a manner other than at large, candidates who
file nominating petitions for an unexpired term shall be
grouped together by area of residence as follows:
(1) by congressional townships, or
(2) according to incorporated or unincorporated areas.
Candidate groupings by area of residence for full terms
shall precede the candidate groupings by area of residence
for unexpired terms on the ballot. The ballot order of each
candidate grouping shall be determined by the order of
petition filing or lottery held pursuant to Section 9-11.1 in
the following manner:
The area of residence of the candidate determined to be
first by order of petition filing or by lottery shall be
listed first among the candidate groupings on the ballot.
All other candidates from the same area of residence will
follow according to order of petition filing or the lottery.
The area of residence of the candidate determined to be
second by the order of petition filing or the lottery shall
be listed second among the candidate groupings on the ballot.
All other candidates from the same area of residence will
follow according to the order of petition filing or the
lottery. The ballot order of additional candidate groupings
by area of residence shall be established in a like manner.
In any school district that elects its board members
according to area of residence and that has one or more
unexpired terms to be filled at an election, the winner or
winners of the unexpired term or terms shall be determined
first and independently of those running for full terms. The
winners of the full terms shall then be determined taking
into consideration the areas of residence of those elected to
fill the unexpired term or terms.
"Area of Residence" means congressional township,
incorporated and unincorporated territories.
