I live in Illinois and that's a flat out lie.
Rick is not on the ballot, in every Congressional District in Illinois!*** I live in Illinois and that's a flat out lie. ***
Bill, I saw that 'not on ballot' bs myself and thought no way in hades. Since some of our congressional districts go through like four counties it's impossible for him to be on one ballot but not on another. But the lie was spread none the less and bought by a lot of folks.
I went to the state Board of Election website to look at the Rules for Candidates and saw zero as to 'congressional districts'. And ditto for the DuPage County Board of Elections - zero on 'congressional districts'.
But what fries my patot in this article is this junk:
In keeping with the pattern of rural voters preferring Santorum, the survey found the former Pennsylvania senator leads Romney 35 percent to 29 percent in 96 counties outside of Chicago.Got that -- 96 Counties "outside of Chicago". The fact is that we have 101 Counties in IL. So now, all of a sudden the MSM has declared that: Will County(1), Dupage County(2), Lake County(3), and Kane County(4) are now 'all part of Chicago' and Crook County(5).
Well I have news flash for them. We fled and I mean FLED, Chicago and Crook County in 1975 when we got married for the political freedom of REPUBLICAN DuPage County, and avoid Chi and Crook like the Plague. And if one of those MSM peckerwoods said to my face I was 'part of Chicago', I'd rip off their empty head and p___ down their neck!
I know you're 'stuck in Crook County' and feel for what you have to go through :-)
