Will County Board Meeting | February 19, 2026

Article Summary: The Will County Board approved a resolution calling for the review of election systems and integrity, following public comments alleging inaccuracies in the 2024 election.

Election Integrity Resolution Key Points:

  • Public Comment: Volunteers from “Unite for Freedom” presented data alleging voter roll errors in Illinois.

  • Resolution: Calls for infrastructure compliance (FISMA), voter verification, and ballot security.

  • Context: The speakers claimed over 4 million registration errors and 1.4 million votes counted from ineligible registrants in Illinois during the 2024 election.

Following a series of public comments regarding election integrity, the Will County Board heard a request to adopt a resolution ensuring a “legally valid and transparent 2026 general election.”

Speakers identifying themselves as volunteers with “Unite for Freedom” presented findings from an independent audit of Illinois 2024 general election data.

“Our analysis of the certified results from both 2022 and 2024 general elections reveals that not all votes counted were valid and accurate under the law,” said Brian Jones, a resident of Winnebago County.

Speaker Kathleen Wagner cited specific figures, alleging “4,566,215 material registration errors” in the state voter database and “56,164 excess votes counted beyond the number of voters who participated.”

The group urged the board to adopt a resolution calling for strict adherence to federal and state election laws, including maintaining accurate voter rolls and ensuring voting systems meet federal security standards.

“If we do not act, the same election systems and procedures that led to the errors in 2022 and 2024 will likely produce similar results in the upcoming 2026 general election,” Jones stated.

While the board did not vote on the specific resolution presented by the public speakers during the meeting, the comments were entered into the record.
