§ 22-18(untitled)

The canvass of votes and the proclamation
of results by the election
authority provided in Section 22-17
shall be conducted in accordance with the procedures and
requirements otherwise provided in this Article. A signed copy or original duplicate of
its completed abstract of votes must be transmitted to each election authority having
jurisdiction over any of the territory of the respective political
subdivision and transmitted, by
facsimile, e-mail, or any other electronic means, to the State Board of Elections in the same manner as
provided in Section 22-5.
 The county clerk shall make out a certificate of election to each
person declared elected to an office by the election
authorities

and transmit such certificate to the person so entitled, upon his
application. For political subdivisions whose territory extends into
more than one county, the certificates of election shall be issued by
the county clerk of the county which contains the principal office of
the political subdivision.
 Whenever an election
authority canvasses the votes cast upon a public
question submitted to referendum pursuant to a court order, the election
authority

shall immediately transmit a signed copy or an original duplicate of its
completed abstract of the votes to the court which ordered the
referendum.
