Macon County, Illinois residents will vote in the Primaries on March 19th, 2024 and in the General Election on November 5th, 2024.

Note: This page is under construction. Additional offices and candidates will be added soon.

The only local seats in contention are for Coroner, which has three Republican candidates and one Democrat candidate.

After the March 19th Primaries, either local party may slate candidates for vacancies - i.e. seats the party didn't run for in the Primaries.

Macon County Democrats slated several candidates in 2022.

There will also be state and federal races on your ballot.

Note: I have not reviewed precinct committeeperson races, and some of those may be competitive.

The 2023 Consolidated elections cover municipal offices like city council, school board, and several others. These elections are technically non-partisan in most municipalities. That means candidates do not officially run as a political party.
