Kankakee County unofficial election April 2025 results

Who is leading in local Kankakee County elections

A “Vote Here” sign in front of the Kankakee County Clerk’s Office

Voters this week in Kankakee County determined who will make the important decisions regarding their communities, schools, townships, fire departments, parks and libraries.

Write-in ballots may not be tallied on election night.

Results will be updated here as county clerk’s offices update their websites.

Mail-in ballots have two weeks to arrive as long as they were postmarked by Election Day. Provisional ballots also can be addressed and counted during that time.
