RULES ON WOMEN'S RIGHTS
AS ELECTION OFFICIALS

Springfield H., March attorney
General Patrick J. Lucey and his de-
partment have been asked to answer
the question:
Can women voters of Illinois serve
as election judges ana clerks in cleo
ton where constitutional officers are
voted on?"
The department has replied, in all
cases, in the negative. Under the mi
nois statute the suffrage of women is
only for Offices which are not provided
for in the state constitution
The statute provides that Judges
and clerks of election must be quail
fed voters at that election" said Chief
Assistant Attorney General Strawn in
discussing the question. This rule
applied makes it necessary to dis
qualify women fer service as officials
where the list of offices voted upon
embraces other than Offices for which
women can legally vote
Inquiries concerning the matter have
come into the attorney generals of.
fees from several sources. In few
instances. elections will be held this
spring. at which none but non-consti-
tutional Offices VIII be voted upon. in
which cases women may serve as
judges and clerks.
The law provides for separate bal
lot boxes and for separate ballots, but
the ruling does not contemplate two
sets of judges and clerks. therefore the
judges and clerks serving must be
qualified to vote for every Office in
volved in the given election.
