Ballot Challenge Is Delaying Early Voting In Illinois

Voters in Illinois are going to have to wait a tiny bit longer to cast an early ballot for the March primary. The Illinois State Board of Elections yesterday told local election officials that early voting will now begin February 21st, the same day that grace period registration is set to start.  Early voting was supposed to start tomorrow.  The state board says it is waiting for a court to decide if Democratic candidate for attorney general Scott Drury will make the March ballot.
