This is a description of a mythical election of mythical school board members in a mythical district in Illinois. The law, however, is based in Illinois statutes and court cases. The book is divided into four major sections, each of which is addressed to one of the important functionaries in the election process. The largest part is addressed to the secretary of the board of election. It takes him through the mythical election on a chronological basis. The foundation for this portion is the calendar of events, which is presented here. Sections also address the candidate for the board, the election judges, and the school attorney. Numerous legal forms are illustrated and key concepts are highlighted. (Author/IRT)
