You're fortunate that the Governor and Lt. Governor are elected seperately in California. In Illinois, they run independently in the primary and you can vote for whoever you want, but in the general election they're elected as a team by party. In November, voting for a Republican candidate for Governor automatically casts a vote for whoever the Republican candidate for Lt. Governor is.

In 2006, ultra-RINO Judy Baar Topinka used this to her advantage and talked a conservative county attorney into selling his soul and being her running mate, trying to bribe conservatives into voting her in November so we could get a decent conservative as Lt. Governor. It didn't work.

This election, the primary resulted in conservatives winning both the Governor and Lt. Governor primary, with 28 year old Jason Plummer as our nominee for Lt. Governor. It's now even more imperative to elect Brady, because after 8 or 12 years, Plummer will be old enough and have the experience to be his heir apparent.

In 2006, we were forced to cast a write-in vote for Governor because the three ballot choices were ultra-RINO scum (Topinka), Democrat machine scum (Blago), or Green Party loon (Whitney).
