Democrats not only control Chicago/Cook County but they control the entire state through their sheer numbers.

The Republican winner in the Illinois primary will also be decided by democrats. In Illinois, one goes to the polling place and is asked’”Republican or Democrat ballot?”. Obama is unopposed in the rat part of the primary, so rats will request Republican ballots, in huge numbers, hence, whoever they want will be the Republican primary winner in Illinois.

Santorum or Gingrich are both acceptable to me, since Santorum appears to have the best shot at beating scum Romney, I’ll be voting for Santorum tomorrow.

I think that the majority of Illinois Democrats will request democrat ballots, because of the congressional races. In the 1st, 2nd, 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 12th, and 17th Districts, at least two Democrats are running, in each district.

Current Delegate Tracking

1144 needed to clinch, 1324 remaining

Candidate, Won, percent of remainder needed

1. Romney, 521, 47.1%
   
2. Santorum, 253, 67.3%
   
3. Gingrich, 136, 76.1%
   
4. Paul, 50, 82.6%

   If Romney is awarded all of Puerto Rico (23) and Santorum all of Missouri (52) under standard rule of winner take all if absolute majority is won, then the numbers are:

• Romney, 544, 48.0%
  
• Santorum, 305, 67.2%
  
• Gingrich, 136, 80.7%
  
• Paul, 50, 87.6%

  IOW, the trend is our friend. But the gap isn't closing fast enough. Yet.
