City of Kankakee - Electoral Board Livestream

The City of Kankakee Municipal Officers Electoral Board convened on November 10, 2026, to hear objections filed by Patrick and Judith Coy to David Crawford’s nominating papers for third-ward alderman. The board adopted its hearing rules unanimously, 3–0. The objectors argued that the papers were unclear about the office or district sought and omitted the year of the primary election date; Crawford’s attorney argued that the filings substantially complied with election law and did not create confusion. The board took the matter under advisement, with no ruling announced.
