Election 2025

A tight race to fill the vacant District 2 seat on Peoria’s City Council has drawn to a close.

The outcome of last week’s 2025 Consolidated General Election is holding firm in Peoria County so far, with an updated count of provisional and mail-in ballots.

Incumbent Dave Nutter, who was re-elected Tuesday to the Pekin City Council, had some words of advice for Jake Fletcher and Peg Phillips, who also were elected.

Two years ago, voters in Washington District 52 barely defeated a $20 million referendum to build a new Lincoln Grade School. A similar measure for $23 million passed Tuesday 62% to 48%.

The 2025 General Consolidated Election looks like a very successful night for incumbent representatives on the Peoria City Council.

Peoria voters have soundly given Mayor Rita Ali a second term in office.

District 52 voters will decide the future of the two-school district Tuesday.

Both candidates running to represent District 1 on the Peoria City Council for the next four years envision a brighter future for the city, but they hold different viewpoints on how to achieve that goal.

Early voting numbers for the 2025 General Consolidated Election are coming in below the expectations of Peoria County officials.

Illinois voters casting ballots in the April 1 consolidated elections will not be required to show proof of U.S. citizenship, despite an executive order issued this week by President Donald Trump.
