Election Day is here, and for those who have yet to vote, here is a look at what Kane County residents can expect to see when they step into the voting booth.
Not all ballots will look identical, however. The U.S. House of Representatives, General Assembly and Kane County Board races will vary, based on voter residence.
Proposed Amendment to the Illinois 1970 Constitution:
The proposed amendment would add a new section to the Bill of Rights Article of the IllinoisConstitution that would guarantee workers the fundamental right to organize and to bargain collectively and to negotiate wages, hours, and working conditions, and to promote their economic welfare and safety at work. The new amendment would also prohibit from being passed any new law that interferes with, negates, or diminishes the right of employees to organize and bargain collectively over their wages, hours, and other terms and conditions of employment and workplace safety. At the general election to be held on Nov. 8, 2022, you will be called upon to decide whether the proposed amendment should become part of the Illinois Constitution.
