The Illinois Conservative Union sent a public records request under this provision to the Illinois State Board of Elections, requesting information about the maintenance of voter rolls, including the most recent voter registration list for Illinois. The request noted that the records “would be used solely for purposes intended by federal law, namely, to ensure the accuracy and currency of the official list of eligible voters,” the complaint said.
The State Board of Elections denied the request, claiming that only political committees or governmental bodies may receive copies of records.

Chicago’s political leadership is floating a pension buyout program as evidence it is seriously addressing the city’s thirty-six-billion-dollar unfunded pension liability, but Mark Glennon, founder of the Illinois policy research organization Wirepoints, said that the proposal moves debt from one column to another rather than reducing it, and that the broader fiscal picture facing the city continues to deteriorate across every measurable dimension.

Expect no retraction or apology. This what they do.
The state’s existing buyout program for its own pensions is the precedent for Chicago, which should be a warning: Look out for similar exaggerated claims and shoddy analysis.

I would like to check the voters rolls against a list of my own dead relatives.
Why haven’t we had appeals and supreme referrals about the clearly illegal and unconstitutional extension of Fat Boy’s 30 day lockdown? That’s 6 months already!
He’s literally been in contempt of court since July 2. The corruption in the state that looks past this is astounding.
No wonder know one trusts the authorities. There should be a tax revolt, the US is a joke in most of its states, legally. The Feds have a ton of BS and made up stuff against us too, especially the FBI.
Good.
Someone or some group has to hold Pritzker and Illinois to the wall.
JudicialWatch has had success in several states in similar suits so there is hope.
It takes a year? By that time we’ve already been locked down 10x past the 30 day “emergency”. See? Law is a joke, it’s only there for those that don’t need it, weird huh
