>> YOU CAN CAST A BALLOT NOW FOR THE MARCH 19TH PRIMARY.

EARLY VOTING HAS BEEN AVAILABLE FOR A MONTH SO FAR.

IT'S GOING WELL.

THERE HAVEN'T BEEN MAJOR DISRUPTIONS BUT THREATS OF VIOLENCE AT THE POLLS ARE RISING CONCERN.

WDW NEWS END OF ANY KEY JOINS US NOW WITH MORE ON THE PLAN THAT SEEKS TO ADDRESS THAT PROHIBITING GUNS AT THE POLLS.

AMANDA, WHAT CAN YOU TELL US?

WELL, ALL RIGHT, WHEN YOU VOTE, THERE ARE RULES IN SOME OF THESE ARE OBVIOUS LIKE NO TAMPERING WITH VOTING MACHINES, KNOW, STUFFING BALLOT BOXES.

>> TEARING DOWN OR DEFACING CAMPAIGN POSTERS OR HERE'S AN OBVIOUS ONE ACCEPTING MONEY IN EXCHANGE FOR A VOTE.

LESS OBVIOUS.

IT IS AGAINST STATE LAW TO KNOWINGLY SHARE A MARKED BALLOT.

SO NO SELFIES AT THE VOTING MACHINE.

YOU CAN YOU EVER GO ARMED WITH INFORMATION, SAY USE YOUR PHONE TO CHECK OUT THE W T TW NEWS VOTER'S GUIDE DEPENDING ON WHERE YOU LIVE.

IT IS ALSO WHERE YOU VOTE.

THAT IS I'M SORRY.

HE'S ALSO OKAY TO BE LITERALLY ARMED.

STATE LAW HAS NO EXPLICIT RESTRICTION ON GUNS IN POLLING PLACES.

STATE LAWMAKER BOB MORGAN IS WORKING TO CHANGE THAT.

THE REPRESENTATIVE SAYS.

>> IT IS NECESSARY GIVEN RISING SECURITY CONCERNS SURROUNDING ELECTIONS.

>> AS WE HAVE SEEN ELECTION LOCATIONS INCREASINGLY UNDER THREAT OF THOSE WHO ARE TRYING TO DISRUPT THE PROCESS OF BEING ABLE TO PEOPLE WHO ARE INCREASINGLY USING VIOLENCE TO INTIMIDATE PEOPLE AND BRINGING GUNS TO THESE POLLING LOCATIONS TO SCARE PEOPLE FROM EXECUTING THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS.

>> GUN RIGHTS ADVOCATES SAY MORGAN'S PROPOSAL IS AN ANSWER IN SEARCH OF A PROBLEM.

>> SHOW ME THE DATA THAT THERE IS A IF THERE'S A PROBLEM AND GREAT THE YOU KNOW, LET'S LET'S SEE IT.

I CAN ALMOST GUARANTEE YOU THERE'S NOT.

>> THE ILLINOIS STATE RIFLE ASSOCIATION'S AND SULLIVAN SAYS THE PROPOSALS FEAR AND HYSTERIA AND HE SAYS IT'S UNFAIRLY TRYING TO CATEGORIZE LAW ABIDING GUN OWNERS AS DANGEROUS.

>> THE REALITY IS THIS.

IF SOMEBODY IS GOING TO DO SOMETHING BAD AND APPOINT PLACE, THEY'RE GOING TO DO SOMETHING PLACE THE WHAT WITH THIS BILL DOES IS MAKE PEOPLE LESS SAFE BECAUSE IT GOING TO DO SOMETHING.

>> YOU THINK THERE'S GOING RIGHT THERE?

YOU KNOW HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU SEEN THE PRESS WHERE SOMEONE HAD A CONCEALED CARRY PERMANENT STOP, SOMETHING FROM HAPPENING?

>> SULLIVAN MENTION CONCEALED CARRY PERMIT.

HOLDER'S KNOW THOSE ARE FOLKS WHO PASS BACKGROUND CHECKS AND ARE LICENSED BY THE STATE TO BE ABLE TO CARRY GUNS IN PUBLIC.

SO I DO WANT TO CLARIFY GUNS ARE ALREADY FOR BEEN AT MANY PLACES THAT SERVE AS POLLING PLACES LIKE SCHOOLS, LIBRARIES AND GOVERNMENT BUILDINGS.

BUT THAT IS BY VIRTUE OF THEIR REGULAR FUNCTION NOT TO DO WITH AN ELECTION.

MORE GUNS.

BILL WOULD EXPLICITLY GUNS AT ANY AND ALL POLLING PLACES DURING EARLY VOTING AND ON ELECTION DAY.

>> WE SAW WISCONSIN AND MICHIGAN IN TWENTY-TWENTY WHERE POLLING LOCATIONS WERE LITERALLY UNDER THREAT AND PEOPLE WERE SHOWING UP WITH EXTENSIVE AMOUNT OF FIREARMS TO INTIMIDATE AND SCARE PEOPLE.

SO WE'RE NOT TO LET THAT HAPPEN IN ILLINOIS.

ARE GONNA MAKE SURE THE POLLING LOCATIONS ARE SAFE PLACE TO GO.

>> MORGAN POINTS OUT SOME ELECTION.

AUTHORITIES SAY SECURITY CONCERNS HAVE MADE IT MORE DIFFICULT ALREADY TO RECUE RECRUIT ELECTION WORKERS AND JUDGES AND AMENDED.

WHAT ARE THE BILL'S CHANCES WILL DO GUN ISSUES ARE NOT STRICTLY PARTISAN, BUT WE HAVE SEEN SUCCESS IN THE DEMOCRATIC CONTROLLED STATE GOVERNMENT OF SOME MAJOR GUN CONTROL.

THIS ISSUES.

THINK ABOUT THAT ASSAULT WEAPONS LAW.

A SIMILAR PLAN TO MORGAN'S ALREADY JUST PASSED.

BECAME LAW IN NEW MEXICO AND THEN YOU HAVE STATES INCLUDING NEIGHBORING MICHIGAN, AS WELL AS VERMONT THAT ARE CONSIDERING SIMILAR PROPOSALS BANNING GUNS IN POLLING PLACES.

NOW, SULLIVAN AGAIN, GUN RIGHTS LOBBYIST SAYS THAT OUTSIDE OF HIS MAIN ARGUMENTS THAT WE TALKED ABOUT, THERE ARE SOME SUBSTANTIVE PROBLEMS WITH MORGAN'S PROPOSAL, INCLUDING HE SAYS IT IS SILENT ON ISSUES LIKE WHAT TO DO ABOUT ARMED SECURITY GUARDS THAT MAY BE WORKING AT POLLING PLACES.

HE ALSO SAYS THAT IT DOESN'T DO ANYTHING LIKE REQUIRING NO
