I want Quinn to win the primary - regardless of who the GOP nominee is, Quinn will be easier to defeat in November.

IL 18th District, formerly held by Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood, now held by Aaron Schock, youngest member of Congress.

And so far a disappointment to me. Voted for the unconstitutional ex post facto law, to penalize the ones who got big bonuses. Bought whole hog the man made global warming nonsense.

Unopposed in the republican primary and he didn't get a vote from me anyway.

If Kirk gets in, the Illinois conservatives got a lot of explaining to do.

A very large amount of them. I'm surprised. How sad.

Kirk will be an exceptional nominee and gives us a great shot at this Senate pickup.

By law, the ballot reader is supposed to warn the voter about under-voting when it concerns an IL Constitutional office. I didn't vote for two candidates that were running unopposed, and, I didn't know anything about them. Because they were running for Constitutional offices in IL, the ballot reader asked (electronically) whether I approved or disapproved of the under-voting. I pushed the approved button and was on my way. I was the 20th voter to vote in my precinct and the time was 1045am. A 30% turnout is predicted.

Looks like Stroger is going down before he’s indicted instead of after....

Looks like the Kirk - Giannoulias matchup will come off after all. I thought Giannoulias had blown it but doesn’t look that way.

——”Idiotic Kirk voters!”——

Welcome to Illinois.

Looks like the Proft folks and the Brady-cide voters are going to take JUST enough of a chuck to give the nod to the Party Guy.

If just 50% of Proft and Brady voters could have been moved to an acceptable Conservative alternative, a Conservative would be winning right now.

I have to disagree with you, because the total votes for Patrick Hughes and (I think) Don Lowrey, will likely reflect the number of conservatives voting in this Illinois election.

Pickup of WHAT? Another cap-and-trader?

I should care about that why, exactly? Why should I care if a leftists has an “R” or a “D” next to his name?

“If Kirk gets in, the Illinois conservatives got a lot of explaining to do.”

Explanation: we conservatives only get one vote apiece.

Seriously, though, as distasteful as he is, Kirk’s got name recognition, and especially in a primary, that’s a hell of an advantage.
