Our office does have notaries available from 8:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, and we notarize candidates’ paperwork free of charge. We will be accepting filings for offices including Board of Review, County Clerk, County Treasurer, Regional Office of Education, Sheriff, Supervisor of Assessments, County Board Members, and Precinct Committee persons.
