SALINE COUNTY, IL. (WJPF) – Election officials in Saline County have ruled that the Democratic candidate for treasurer should not be on the November ballot, even though early voting started state-wide September 27, 2018.

An objection was raised to Danny Gibbs’ candidacy because he pulled a Republican ballot in the March primary, and then ran as a Democrat in the General Election, a violation of state election rules.

Gibbs now has the opportunity to appeal the decision.
