A controversial candidate won the GOP nomination in the March Primary for the 9th Congressional District seat. Susan Atanus received a total of 12,447 votes after all 338 precincts in Cook County reported in. The other GOP candidate, David Earl Williams III, received 12,012 votes. Atanus appeared to have a larger turnout from Chicago than in the suburbs, with a nearly 1,000-votes from Chicago voters, according to election results.

They will call it global warming or climate change.

It’s Todd Akins long lost twin sister.

Fortunately for Akin, not his identical twin.

If Jesus Christ Himself came again, changed water into wine, raised the dead and walked on water, they would think it was a trick.

Very sad.

She needs support of the party and a national media platform for her message.

Ensuring that no Republican anywhere would ever get elected for anything.

That is simply not true.

Republicans who are true conservatives are more likely to win elections than Republicans who are RINO’s are who are almost indistinguishable from their Democratic opponent.

I understand that Atanus is in a severely gerrymandered Democratic district, but she does have a chance to win if she were to have the party’s support.
