Glendale Heights voters will have a choice of four people to be the next village president after all.
The Illinois 2nd District Appellate Court ruled Monday that Chodri Khokhar should be put back on the April 6 ballot.
In January, the village's electoral board considered a resident's challenge to the election petitions Khokhar submitted. The challenger, Matthew Corbin, argued Khokhar did not have enough signatures because, Corbin contended, some of the signatures were invalid. The board disagreed, saying the DuPage County clerk's office had reviewed the signatures in question and determined enough of them were valid, and that Corbin had not presented evidence showing the clerk's office was incorrect.
