The order in which candidates appear on the ballot can make a real difference — and this Tuesday, we’ll find out where Joshua T. Atkinson will appear for the upcoming Republican Primary Election on March 17th, 2025.

Every candidate who files their nomination papers within the first hour of the filing period earns the right to participate in what’s known as the Illinois Ballot Placement Lottery — a random drawing conducted by the Illinois State Board of Elections to determine ballot order.

While it may seem like a small detail, ballot placement can have a meaningful impact, especially in large, multi-county districts like Senate District 45, where name recognition and visibility matter. The lottery ensures fairness, transparency, and equal opportunity for all candidates, and it’s open for the public to watch live.

Join us virtually on November 12th at 2:00 PM to witness this important step in the election process — and show your support for Joshua T. Atkinson, a candidate bringing honesty, transparency, and common-sense leadership back to Northwest Illinois.
