Since when are we talking about your home state of Illinois? Or Chicago, or the Daley family, or Rostenkowski, or etc. etc. etc.
No comparison. Louisana is INFAMOUS for corruption. The state has had corrupt politicians since it entered the Union. In the dictionary next to corruption is the state of Louisiana.
Chicago is bad but the rest of IL is fairly conservative. IL used to have Republican Governors that served as a check on Chicago, although lately that hasn't been the case.
