Section 9-120. Returns of canvass; generally

1.  Upon  completing the
  canvass, the inspectors shall prepare their returns of the canvass. They
  shall use therefor the printed form supplied to them and, at an election
  which was not conducted on a voting machine which produces a printed  or
  photographic  record,  they  shall carefully insert thereon, in ink, the
  appropriate names, words and figures according to the directions printed
  in the form provided by this chapter. The printed or photographic record
  produced by the voting machine and the  tally  sheets  for  any  office,
  party  position  or  ballot  proposal, if separate from the statement of
  return, shall be securely attached by the chairman to such statement  of
  returns.  A  printed  or  photographic  record or a tally sheet, when so
  annexed, or forming part of the same  paper  as  the  return,  shall  be
  treated as part of the return. The inspectors, and clerks, if any, shall
  subscribe  in ink the certificate at the end of the set of returns. Each
  set of returns shall be securely sealed in an envelope properly endorsed
  on the outside by  the  inspectors.  At  an  election  at  which  voting
  machines  are  not used, the ballot boxes, if any, supplied by the board
  of elections, may  when  securely  locked  be  used  instead  of  sealed
  envelopes.
    2.  The form for the return or returns of the canvass shall be printed
  in a form approved by the state board of elections.
