People “downstate” as they call it, DO care. It’s just that the elections are determined in Chicago, unfortunately.

Well, you get 80 miles West of Chicago as I am, and we care as well.

Vote Early and Vote Often is the motto in Illinois. How many of the dead have already voted. Keep in mind the doctor determined Grandmother was brain dead and yet she was able to vote DemocRAT. Vote the crap out in Illinois. This Primary could actually get rid of many the Rats being unable to run in November. poor O, he may lose the seat that was being sold to the highest bidder.

1. Poll workers here in Newark (45 miles SW of Chicago) say that turnout here is typical of primary elections

2. Typical of the Chicago media to assume that whatever happens or doesn’t happen in Chicago goes for the entire state

Unfortunately, we can see how this is going to turn out. Chicago has been the deciding factor for too many years and you can't tell me it's because the citizens of that part of the state gives a damn. The corruption, not only in Chicago, has a stench that stretches across the entire country. There is going to be no other way to rid us of this tyranny that has sieged our Nation........God help us.

“I guarantee my grandfather will be voting in this election. He died in Chicago in 1986.

Do you think he’ll vote just once too?

I include all areas outside of greater metro Chicago as “downstate”.
