Illinois 2002 Primaries

[Chi-townChief]

That's Dolton - I worked at Kaiser Aluminum there at 142nd and Cottage about 30 years ago.

Corrine Wood has conceided YEAH!!!

[Chi-townChief]

The race on the 'rats' side sure tightened up in a hurry. I think Ryan would have a lot better shot against Rodney Blagojevich than he would against Burris or Vallas for what that's worth.

[Chi-townChief]

How many crossovers do you think Wood got and where did they come from???

[Dengar01]

I could strangle Corrine Wood she is now on NBC 5 demanding that the Republican party be more open to moderates. And keeps preaching abortion rights.

[watcher1]

Looks like Blag-O-$h!t

Adios 2nd amendment

[Dengar01]

Great now on NBC our great friends George Ryan and Dickhead Durbin are on.

[Dengar01]

I'm not sure she probably had crossovers mostly from the feminazis.

George Ryan is attacking Pat O'Malley on NBC 5 Chicago now.

[Chi-townChief]

Well, to paraphrase that snotty lady in Wood's own commercial: "She's TOO extreme!!!"

[watcher1]

I'll puke with you

[Dengar01]

yes she is toooooooo extreme and yes watcher1 I'll puke if Blagojavech wins.

[Chi-townChief]

I consider criticism from George Ryan the highest compliment.

[Dengar01]

Agreed

[technochick99]

Agghhhhh....

[Dengar01]

Well folks looks like it is Ryan vs. Blagojavech in the November elections. I'm going to contact the Ryan campaign to work for them because Blagojavech is a scumbag, however, he got his butt kicked up here in northern Illinois.

[BlackElk]

Wood's crossover DemonRats were primarily in Cook County and DuPage County and probably her home base in Lake County.

[John Farson]

I'm not enthusiastic about either gun-grabber. Too bad the RKBA lost tonight.

[Dengar01]

Pat O'Malley has just conceided but states "This is just the beginning"!!! YEAH PAT

[Dengar01]

I think Pat O'Malley may run as an independent!!!

(StopDemocrats.com) - Attorney General Jim Ryan is the Republican nominee for Governor of Illinois in the 2002 November elections. With 80% of precincts reporting state Attorney General Jim Ryan (The more Moderate) had 44% to state Sen. Patrick O'Malley's (The more conservative) 28% and Lt. Gov. Corinne Wood's (The more Liberal) 27%. On the Democratic side things changed over night when Rep. Blagojevich took the lead with 35% to Chicago schools chief Paul Vallas's 34% and Former Attorney General Roland W. Burris with 30%, the race is too close to call at this moment. In an interesting twist, when the count hit 59% Lt. Gov. Corinne Wood's numbered soared to double digits over Jim Ryan, suddenly when the count went to 63% the numbers came back to where they are now with Jim Ryan leading by double digits. The latest one-on-one poll has Ryan leading Blagojevich by 3 points and Vallas by 1.
