This LINK explains a bit of the recent history of the pool process and why this new committee was proposed. It is a good review for those new to this issue.
Today is the DAY - be sure to VOTE! These off-year spring municipal elections often have very low voter turn-out so EVERY VOTE COUNTS! If we learned nothing else in the D200 Referendum vote last fall, we certainly learned that lesson.
If you're unsure where to vote, this link will help you find your polling place based upon your registered address: www.cookcountyclerk.com/elections/voterprofile/Pages/default.aspx
Polls close at 7:00 PM.
Results of the races** (see below) will be available after the polls have closed as precincts report their votes - it can can some time for all the results to trickle in to the County Clerk's office. Here are links to look up results for some of the major races:
D200 School Board (OPRF is the second from the top): http://electionnightresults.cookcountyclerk.com/StaticSummaryeid040417jurHIGHS.html
