It's catch up time for the Cheat Sheet! We've been running behind, but will have a bunch of overviews of February local government information as we get swinging in March. A quick reminder that early voting for the April 2nd municipal elections has already begun:
The first early-voting opportunities will be at one Champaign County location only — the county clerk's office in Brookens Administrative Center, 1776 E. Washington St., U.More information at the full News-Gazette article here and the Champaign County Clerk's website here. The Champaign County Voter Alliance has a candidate guide here.
Eight other locations in Champaign-Urbana, Mahomet, St. Joseph, Rantoul and Tolono will be available for early voting starting March 27, and will be open through Election Day.
Here are links to videos and coverage of recent local candidate forums organized by the News-Gazette, Champaign County NAACP and League of Women Voters:
