  14. ==This ain’t 2010. Obama 6 year impact.==

    2010 was the year of the Tea Party too. Interested to see how similar returns are this year.

  18. CNN exit polls look pretty good for Quinn, considering everything else today.

    Comment by Dwight K. Schrute Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 7:43 pm

  19. Can someone answer if exit polling factors in the early votes or not?

    Comment by anon the phenom Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 7:43 pm

  20. My mom received what she said was a very anti-Hillary Clinton push poll late today. Already?

    Comment by Andy Nymous Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 7:43 pm

  21. The collar counties are 25% of the electorate? Huh? That sounds low to me … Not sure how much stock yet to put in this exit poll.

    Comment by ZC Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 7:44 pm

  22. ==Can someone answer if exit polling factors in the early votes or not?==

    Exit polls are polling of people at the polling sights, so no they wouldn’t

    Comment by Anonymous Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 7:45 pm

  23. ===The collar counties are 25% of the electorate? Huh? That sounds low to me===

    That’s actually a bit too high. http://illinoiselectiondata.com/elections/ILprofile.php

    Comment by Rich Miller Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 7:51 pm

  24. In the precincts reporting, Rauner is scoring better than JBT. That has to be very good for Rauner or bad for all Republicans as a whole.

    Comment by Robert Lincon Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 7:56 pm

  25. Prelim FYI from single precinct of 128 voters in downstate Carroll County, unofficial, of course. It is the only one reported as of my page load at 7:41pm.

    Voting Rights 62% for
    Birth Control 57% for
    Millionaire Tax 55% for
    Oberweis 55% for
    Rauner 69% for
    Judy Baar 62% for
    Schilling 51% for
    Local School 1%-Sales Tax 52% against

    Looking at the spread between Rauner and Schilling, it is showing me that Rauner could be strong downstate, in a precinct that is barely voting against incumbent congresswoman Bustos. She wins big tonight when Rock Island county gets counted.

    Rauner probably wins too if such intensity is out there elsewhere. He is well ahead of JBT, who is very popular.

    Obviously this is only one precinct, and from the county website I can’t tell which one, so take it for what its worth. I think it says the most for Bustos going home the winner.

  26. ===Prelim FYI from single precinct of 128 voters in downstate Carroll County===

    Dude, don’t do that again. It’s super silly.

    Comment by Rich Miller Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 7:58 pm

  27. Wow… Rep. Scott Drury may lose.

    Rep. Sam Yingling is ahead by a nose.

    Comment by Just Observing Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 7:59 pm

  28. No prob, I think Bustos is looking great if she barely lost here, thats the main message. Sorry Rich.

    Comment by Carroll County Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 8:01 pm

  29. When are they going to call this for Rauner ? The fat lady has sung the song already !

    Comment by ThatGirl Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 8:20 pm

  30. ThatGirl,pass that over here, i’m down. lol

    Comment by kimaye Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 8:26 pm

  31. What on earth is going on with these results? At 22 percent reporting, White is being reported as losing 25 percent to 72 to the Republican for Secretary of State — behind even Sheila Simon. And all these left-leaning ballot measures passing. These numbers are simply beyond bizarre.

    Comment by Angry Chicagoan Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 8:29 pm

  32. And meanwhile, over at the Tribune’s election center, normal service restored; White with 69 percent of the vote. Someone must have called in or added up a bum set of results to the AP, and some of the TV stations and the NY Times put them up.

    Comment by Angry Chicagoan Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 8:31 pm

  33. bye bye oberwiess

    Comment by foster brooks Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 8:32 pm

  34. I think the ABC7Chicago.com results has them backwards.

    Comment by Mike Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 8:35 pm

  35. With 44% of the precincts reporting in Sangamon County, Rauner has a bigger lead than Lisa Madigan has. Oberweis has the lead over Durbin in Durbin’s home county.

    Comment by anonano Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 8:37 pm

  36. Who are these Rauner supporting, pro minimum wage referendum voters? The Sun Times can’t have that many people employed across the state, can they?

    Comment by AC Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 8:44 pm

  37. I hear that Frank Mautino is not doing well.

    Comment by Regnad Kcin Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 8:59 pm

  38. Rauner at over 21 percent of the Chicago vote is the most interesting number so far. If he can hold that he will be very tough to beat.

    Comment by Percival Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 9:01 pm

  39. 60% needed in Florida for the constitutional amendment legalizing medical cannabis.

    420radio currently showing only 57.4% yes.

    Comment by Kasich Walker, Jr. Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 9:04 pm

  40. Congratulations to Jesse White for winning his sixth term, Very impressive, since he was running for the fifth time.

    Comment by Almost Right Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 9:05 pm

  41. ==Rauner at over 21 percent of the Chicago vote is the most interesting number so far. If he can hold that he will be very tough to beat. ==

    This. If that number holds, that’s a huge increase from 2010 from Brady, and even Kirk

    Comment by Anonymous Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 9:09 pm

  42. Quinn looks to be in serious trouble. He’s got 70 percent of the Chicago vote in but is up only 50-47 statewide.

    Comment by Percival Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 9:10 pm

  43. Now it is nearly even at 58 percent statewide, but 75 percent of Chicago counted. Quinn now is in serious trouble, not just looking.

    Comment by Percival Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 9:19 pm

  44. @Percival -

    I agree Quinn looks in trouble, but I think you may be looking at 75 percent of Cook County in, not 75 percent of Chicago in.

    Comment by hisgirlfriday Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 9:23 pm

  45. Hundreds still in line in downtown Chicago to vote hours after polls closed: http://politics.suntimes.com/article/chicago/hundreds-chicago-still-waiting-vote/tue-11042014-903pm

  46. ==but I think you may be looking at 75 percent of Cook County in, not 75 percent of Chicago in. ==

    Rich’s numbers earlier had over 70% of Chicago in

    Comment by Anonymous Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 9:30 pm

  47. More good news for Rauner. Chicago…

    1565 out of 2069 precincts (75.64 %)

    DEM - P Quinn & P Vallas 346,177 76.28 %
    REP - B Rauner & E Sanguinetti 98,579 21.72 %
    LIB - C Grimm & A Cummings 9,060 2.00 %

  48. Dold looks like a winner; surprised by the closeness of Topinka/Simon

    Comment by Wordslinger Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 9:37 pm

  49. Does anyone have the best site to look at for realtime election totals? Suntimes vs Trib sites are extremely different.

    Comment by NW Burb Dad Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 9:39 pm

  50. what the what with Simon/Topinka?!?!

    Comment by Amalia Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 9:41 pm

  51. Happy for Mike Bost

    Comment by Dozer Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 9:41 pm

  52. NW Burb, ST is better, updates faster

    Comment by anonano Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 9:43 pm

  53. If CNN is accurate, Rauner is looking good with est 62% in. 1,167,691 - 1,119,741. 83% of Cook.

    Comment by Desert Dweller Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 9:43 pm

  54. Wow. I think Rauner is going to pull this off!

    Comment by Joe Blow Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 9:47 pm

  55. NW Burb

    I have been following on the Tribune and Foxnews all night.

  56. Quinn is toast. Let the fun begin.

    Comment by sparky791 Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 9:49 pm

  57. CNN has Quinn with only 63% of Cook County vote with 85% in.

    Ouch.

    Comment by Matt P. Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 9:51 pm

  58. 97% vote in Sangamon County, Rauner a plus 11,000
