A petition may be signed by a majority of the voters residing in the territory sought to be annexed if there are fewer than 100 voters residing in that territory.(c) After a petition is filed, the district secretary shall certify the question to the proper election authority, who shall submit the question of annexation to all voters residing within the territory proposed to be annexed and to all voters already within the district. Notice of this election shall be given and the election shall be conducted in accordance with the Election Code. If a majority of the votes cast upon the question by those in the territory proposed to be annexed and a majority of the votes cast by those voting within the district are in favor of the proposition, the territory may be annexed.(d) The proposition shall be submitted to the voters in substantially the same form as set forth in subsection (c) of Section 15-65.(e) The judge assigned to the matter shall enter an order setting forth the results of the election based upon the certificate filed with the court by the election authority, and the order shall become a part of the records of the court.
