Illinois Supermajority Democrats Pass 'Ethics Bill' to Reform 2024 Election Laws
May 3, 2024, 04:45 PM
In a rapid legislative move, Illinois Democrats have enacted significant changes to the state's election laws. The new legislation, which was introduced and passed within a span of three days by the supermajority Democrats in both the House and Senate, includes provisions that end the candidate slating process, requiring all candidates to participate in primaries rather than being appointed post-primary. Additionally, the law introduces three nonbinding referendums aimed at boosting Democratic turnout in the upcoming 2024 general election. Governor J.B. Pritzker signed the bill, describing it as an 'ethics bill' that aims to prevent 'backroom deals' in candidate selection.
