Reading a law blog about Bost’s case before the Supreme Court:
“But at oral argument today, Justice Sam Alito brought up an important, additional way that he thought Bost could be harmed by Illinois’s law, which Bost carelessly left out of his complaint: People could vote for Democrats.
“It’s not clear to me why you couldn’t have done a lot better than you did in your complaint, and alleged what most people believe to be true, which is that loosening the rules for counting ballots like this generally hurts Republican candidates, generally helps Democratic candidates,” said Alito. “Why didn’t you pursue that? Why didn’t you try to do something with that?””

It’s a beautiful fall day. But so anxious about so many things one of which is my Cook County real estate tax bill. Does the county have a plan? Will we have to pay two bills at once next year?
Not the most important issue out there, but it sure reduces confidence that government can work.

I long for the days when a Cubs playoff win would be the biggest news in Chicago.
