Statewide, the oldest voter is Tim Dial at 118 years old. There are 42 individuals on Illinois voter rolls who are currently listed as having been born before the oldest living person in the United States, Hester Ford. Ford was born August 15, 1905, according to the Supercentenarian Research Foundation.
