“I also live in DuPage County which USED to be conservative but went mostly for Barry this time around.”
No it didn’t. Where the heck did you hear that from?
DuPage county went to Obama by about 54%. If you don't believe this, feel free to go to USElectionAtlas.org or CNN Election 2008 page, click on "Illinois" and select election results by county.
I heard that DuPage voted O as well as Kane County this year. I couldn’t believe it. A friend of mine told me this, she either got it from the papaers, but more than likely the state election page.
