No runoff, the final will be Rosanna Pulido, Mike Quigley - Dem, Matthew Reichel - Green, and any 3rd party who can petition to get on.

Her website accepts online donations.

YEAH! Congrats!

[Global2010]

Gotcha.

I know you are excited about her victory. Just wasnt sure how excited.: )

Can you imagine the hoopla from Male fans if Miss Coulters screen name was reveiled. :-o

"How does this change the balance of power in Congress now ?"

It doesn't, yet. Just remember, every drop of water in a bucket contributes to the water itself.

Congratulations, Congresswoman!

[ConservativeMind]

Congratulations!! I knew you could do it!

[Global2010]

Did she make the wordage on this poll.

If so she has a great sense of humor.

Let's hope that the tide is turning into a flood of conservatism that will lead us to future victories.

Chok dii (good luck) from the Chiang Mai division of the Chicagolady fan club. Since this is an Illinois election, those of us here in Thaiand ca vote too??

But look, the Dems had far more turnout for their candidates.

Why won’t more conservatives get off their duffs and VOTE?

[TheRealDBear]

IIRC, a Republican won in the district right after Dan Rostenkowski was indicted. So it can happen...

[Danae]

WOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats Chicagolady - Rosanna!

GO GET EM!!!!!

[TheEaglehasLanded]

Good point, the turnouts are as follows 3,900 for Republicans, Green had about 450. Dems had about 50,000.

[blondee123]

It’s a start & those of us in Illinois know how big this win will be, since it breaks into the Chicago MACHINE! I will go donate, anything to stop the Dems in Crook County!

[deannadurbin]

I noticed the same thing in the primary season. They’d put the numbers up of Reps. and Dems. and there would be thousands more turnout for the Democrats. I knew then we were in real deep doo doo. They have moveon.org and George Soros, worth billions. We have talk radio and Free Republic takes weeks to raise a few paltry thousands.

[MurrietaMadman]

Congratulations, Rosanna!

[MurrietaMadman]

Do you think those numbers (3,900 for Republicans, Green had about 450. Dems had about 50,000)have anything to do with this story?

Or was that problem corrected?

[Secret Agent Man]

Gotta start rebounding somewhere. If she is a good conservative republican, I am happy she will be there.

[Outland]

WOOHOOO, Chicagolady!

I’m not in her district, but I’ll be making a celebration donation nonetheless.
