My guess he’s doing this just to damage the Republican party. He could probably seriously run as a Democrat, though. Robert Byrd was a very successful senator and ex-KKK member.
If he’s gop I’m John Cougar Mellencamp.
So the local R party should make sure a conservative 3rd party candidate runs on whatever ticket, then endorse that candidate. Both will lose anyway, so no biggie.
If there were 5,000 registered voters in the district, the democrat would win by 7,000 votes.
Most unfortunate all the same. Has the party disavowed him as Louisiana did with Duke back in the day?

So Dan Lipinski is now facing a serious challenge which will require a heavy turnout which has been reinforced in focus because of the Jones candidacy in the two wards which doesn’t bode well for Ives the Republican challenger to Governor Rauner. In the March 20th Primary .
