No rejoicing?

Alan Keyes did better in Effingham County than anywhere in Illinois, but the only local article posted on the subject that I could find contains just a brief mention of his success buried way down deep:

Not only did President George W. Bush carry Effingham County by nearly 3 to 1, but U.S. Senate candidate Alan Keyes soundly thrashed Democrat Barack Obama in the county, even though Obama won a landslide victory statewide.

Keyes won 57 percent of the vote in Effingham County, to 40 percent for Obama. Two minor candidates split the other three percent.

Keyes also did well in Iroquois County, but the largest daily newspaper in that county has yet to post any stories about the victory on its website.
