Mayoral race in SchaumburgIL questionable at close of candidate filing; no Feb. 28 primary election there, in HoffmanTweets or Palatine_IL
Frequent candidate William Olson filed the sole challenge to Schaumburg Mayor Tom Dailly's reelection bid, but his nominating petition includes only 32 signatures, well short of the 83 needed, Village Clerk Marilyn Karr said.
"I'm not certifying ," Karr said after the filing deadline Monday."There's nothing there to certify. There's no justification for sending out the paperwork."The Illinois State Board of Elections is not involved in municipal elections, Public Information Officer Matt Dietrich said, adding that municipal clerks have a fair amount of latitude in determining whether petitions meet required criteria, even without a third party's objection.

In Schaumburg, Olson filed his candidacy last week under the name of William de la Fontaine-Olson, as he did in his recent failed bid for a U.S. Senate seat in Louisiana, where he said he has dual residency.
