Official. The Village Clerk is to accept nomination papers from
candidates for village offices and to certify to the Cook County

A copy of the State of Illinois Candidate’s

available at the Village Hall approximately 6 months prior to the
Consolidated Election. The Guide provides information on the
election process to prospective candidates seeking office at the

filing of nomination papers, the Guide lists the
