Will County offices such as County Board seats for districts covering the area, potentially the Will County Executive, and various county-wide positions including County Clerk, Recorder, Sheriff, and Circuit Clerk may be contested depending on term schedules. Judicial retention votes for Circuit Court judges and potential appellate judges may also appear, along with any local ballot questions or referenda placed before village voters. Illinois offers several voting options beyond Election Day. Any registered voter may request a mail-in ballot without providing an excuse by submitting an application to the Will County Clerk (applications available at https://www.thewillcountyclerk.com). Applications must reach the Will County Clerk by five days before the election for mail delivery of ballots, though in-person requests can be made through the day before the election at the Clerk's office. Voters can also use early voting at designated Will County locations beginning 40 days before the election and continuing through the day before Election Day, with extended hours in the final weeks. Grace period registration and voting is available at the Will County Clerk's office and designated sites for those who missed the regular registration deadline.
