Illinois used to be Conservative. Eons ago my great aunt worked for Everett Dirksen (R,Senator)in DC. Chicago has been a cesspool of Dems for decades. Sadly the rest of the state has caught up to the Chicago way of doing things.

It's all about the demographics.

Wrong-o, the rest of the country is going to get a taste of it. They just elected a typical Chicago thug to the highest office in the land. This country had better “Brace for impact” because the poo is going to hit the fan

Ok, the rats have won. Now their corruption is exposed...

Not so. My county West of Chicago is decidedly Republican as are many areas. The problem is Cook County/Chicago and a few other areas have too much power over state machinery. And the Republicans have had a dismal record lately of hosting viable conservative candidates for state offices.
