I understand if you choose to vote for Claypool. Though I’m disinclined to do so myself.
I’m not aware of any polling for that race. If it was clearly a 2 way race between Claypool and Berrios I’d have to at least consider it. That probably is the situation. GOP has been pathetic in county-wide races. Comparing it to the Lieberman election is apt though I don’t know if any GOP leaders are backing Claypool as they did Liarman. I REALLY don’t want to vote for him and probably won’t.
In the Cook Co. assessor race, I’ll vote for the Republican, Sharon Eckersall. I hope that the democrat vote will split, helping her win, with 40%-45% of the vote.
