SBE approves board orders and votes to enter closed preliminary hearings
The Illinois State Board of Elections voted to accept a list of investments and assessments that had not been appealed and to enter those board orders.

Board staff pointed to pages 56–58 of the packet as the list requiring action; a motion to accept and enter the board orders carried on roll call. The board then moved to go into closed preliminary hearing and executive session under section 9-21 of the Election Code and section 2(c)(4) of the Open Meetings Act; that motion also passed.

The executive-session vote was unanimous. Members said a brief break would be taken before the closed proceedings.
