It looks dire:
U.S. House - District 14 - Special General
Illinois - 447 of 568 Precincts Reporting - 79%
Name Party Votes Vote %
Foster , Bill Dem 41,488 53%
Oberweis , Jim GOP 36,933 47%
Would it be vindictive for me to ping this to Chicagolady?
She'll just blame it on Chris Lauzen for not "getting behind" Obie strongly enough after Obie spent 3 million bucks on characther assisination ads against him. Nevermind the fact that polls show that roughly 90% of Lauzen voters supporting the party's nominee. The thing that's killing Obie is his showing with independants and conservative-leaning female voters.
But according to the Obie fans, it's NEVER Obie's fault. Ever.
