designate one or more absentee voting boards, to be composed of two
(2) members each, with each member to be of a different political
affiliation.
B. No later than June 1 in each even-numbered year, the chair
of the county central committees of the two political parties having
the highest number of registered voters in the county shall each
submit a list of ten names to the secretary. Such lists shall
contain names of registered voters of the county, who shall meet the
same eligibility requirements for precinct officials as described in
Section 2-131 of this title.
C. The secretary shall utilize such lists in designating
membership on the absentee voting board or boards, unless all
persons on such lists are ineligible, unable or unwilling to serve.
In the event the chair of the county central committee of a
political party fails to submit a list as herein provided, the
secretary shall appoint membership to such board or boards from the
ranks of registered voters of such party within the county.
Provided further, that in the event the list of names of either or
both parties is exhausted and additional absentee voting boards are
needed, the secretary shall appoint additional members to such
boards from the ranks of such party or parties in the county.
D. Members of an absentee voting board shall be compensated at
the same rate as a precinct judge or clerk.
E. One member of each such board serving a nursing home, State
Veterans Home or convalescent hospital, shall be allowed mileage
reimbursement at the rate prescribed for travel by state employees
according to the State Travel Reimbursement Act.
