Very simple and clean, which I like a lot. Ray’s is awful. - shore - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 1:48 pm: there is a colorado equivalent of cap fax. Each week/month they come out with rankings similar to what national journal/stu rothenberg does and what the ap does with college football showing who is up/down in various races/seats. It’s far and away the most popular part of the site. I don’t expect you to do it for the lake county sanitation district site, but for the 5-10 big races gov/sen/control of house ect, it might be a good way to drive more traffic to the site, get you some msm press in candidates touting their move up the rankings, a barometer if you will. Also in off years it makes it easier to keep track of things and keeps them interesting. - yinn - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 1:48 pm: http://www.adamforillinois.com/ - yinn - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 1:50 pm: http://www.robinfortreasurer.com/ - yinn - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 1:54 pm: http://www.electjeffsmith.org/ Sorry for the multiple comments.

Splash pages are a no-no. They mess with your Google juice and provide an extra step for people to see your message. - ranckle - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 2:57 pm: www.juliehamos.org - Elin - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 2:59 pm: Make a wiki website for Illinois campaigns? - ExPress - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 3:07 pm: Since no one’s mentioned the Illinois Campaign for Political Reform and its Sunshine Database, I will: http://www.ilcampaign.org/ - Apple - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 3:24 pm: debbiehalvorson.com - Northfield Republican - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 3:25 pm: This is for Phil Collins, a Republican who is running for state rep., in the 17th District: philcollins4illinois.angelfire.com. - http://www.tonipreckwinkle.org/ - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 3:35 pm: http://www.tonipreckwinkle.org/ - Highland, IL - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 3:36 pm: http://www.timdudley.com/ - Ready to rumble - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 3:43 pm: The one with the best, most timely content = www.proft2010.com - dr clean - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 3:53 pm: http://10thdistrictfordanseals.com/ - Big Time - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 4:06 pm: http://ryanhiggins.com/Home.aspx - Big Time - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 4:07 pm: http://www.patrickhughesforsenate.com/ - 47th Ward - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 4:24 pm: This is pretty cool campaign site too: http://www.saveillinoismapgrants.org/ Primary for this race is October 15th. - Pot calling kettle - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 4:43 pm: http://www.lasalledemocrats.com/ - Cal - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 4:44 pm: bobforillinois.com - MrBrownThumb @ Chicago Garden - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 5:10 pm: I’ve found http://tom4gov.org/ because he’s really active on Twitter and Twitter is my current obsession. - Anonymous - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 5:14 pm: http://www.stgop.org/ - wordslinger - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 5:27 pm: Too early. Baseball pennant races, start of high school, college, pro football. Then come the holidays, winter and the Super Bowl. I’ll start paying attention… …come to think of it, this February primary makes a lot of sense for some people! - Kane Conservative - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 5:48 pm: i think the primary actually occurs a few days before the Super Bowl this year…the best sites for my money are www.bobforillinois.com (which pains me since i am not a huge fan) and www.proft2010.com. at least those are the best among the gop statewides…however did anyone look at the pat hughes site (and i am not picking on him) but so many sites look exactly like his–its almost like there is one political template and thats it - COPN - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 6:02 pm: http://ascotforcongress.com/ (D) 7th Congressional - Anonymous - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 6:37 pm: http://kirkforsenate.com/ There’s a separate Kirk site for his district. - LaSalle - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 6:38 pm: http://www.obrienforcookcounty.com/ - Speaking At Will - Thursday, Sep 17, 09 @ 8:26 pm: www.governorrod.com - Web Watch - Friday, Sep 18, 09 @ 1:11 am: www.adamforillinois.com is the best Gov site. Most speeches, policy, pictures, general content, and looks great too. - Reddbyrd - Friday, Sep 18, 09 @ 6:57 am: Based on results, I would have to say House Democrats are top notch. Their low key approach to Twitter/Facebook/ Goolash & Baloneyramabama take a lot of pressure off all hands. - KeepSmiling - Friday, Sep 18, 09 @ 8:29 am: www.judybarrtopinka.com - Bring Back Boone's - Friday, Sep 18, 09 @ 9:08 am: http://www.noland.org/ - Bary Lankin - Friday, Sep 18, 09 @ 2:20 pm: www.danhynes.com is Dan Hynes’ gubernatorial website. - Orland Park Republican - Tuesday, Sep 29, 09 @ 2:12 pm: Check out Jeff’s web site. It’s great to have a Republican running in the 37th District. Sorry, comments for this post are now closed.
