AI Summary
This bill amends the Election Code to require that before a county board or board of election commissioners (officials responsible for administering elections) requests to use a school building as a polling place, they must first explore and evaluate all other suitable alternative locations. This change aims to ensure that schools are not automatically chosen as polling places without considering other options that might be available and appropriate for voting.
