Wonder what Oberweis will run for next.

Dog Catcher, and he would lose that race too.

There is something about him. I can’t put my finger on it. So, yes. I agree there is something about him imho

48-48-3 exit polling. That aint good for Rauner considering Quinn has a huge built in lead with early voting.

Shocking revelation!
Comment by LA Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 7:40 pm
My dad is a downstate hardcore straight ticket voting Republican, comes from a long line of the same! He just admitted to voting for the libertarian for Gov! He said the other guys at the coffee shop “liars” table said they did the same, knew they were throwing their vote away but didn’t care because they didn’t like the other two candidates. I’m eager to see if this was a phenomen on my hometown only! Show us the numbers!

Obie will challenge Kirk in the 2016 primary.
Like Mac would say, “if I don’t do it, somebody else will.”
Comment by Wordslinger Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 7:48 pm
Oberweis is getting better at running.
It was a whole two minutes before Durbin was declared winner.

In other news I wonder if Topinka won
Comment by anon Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 7:53 pm
Ron Majers at ABC 7 WLS-TV Chicago just said their exiting polling showed Quinn holding over 90% of AA vote in Chi.
Comment by Kasich Walker, Jr. Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 8:03 pm
- Kasich Walker -,
Percentage is good, plurality with percentage is best.
The turnout in Chicago might decide a great deal. No plurality, no cushion for downstate.

Comment by Ghost Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 8:53 pm
so it’s official, Oberweis can still say he is not a career politician even though he is a career candidate. still not eating his ice cream.
Comment by Amalia Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 8:53 pm
It’s going to be very close
Comment by Summer wind Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 8:53 pm
What surprises me is that Shelia Simon is, at the moment, beating Topinka by a good margin: 52 to 43% with 44% of the vote counted, according to both the Sun-Times and Real Clear Politics. Those two sources also indicate that Quinn is running ahead of Rauner 54 to 44%. I expected Simon to do much poorer than Topinka, so I’m wondering if the precincts that have already been counted are mostly the ultimate Democratic stronghold, i.e., Cook Co. (Yeah, I know Simon is from southern Illinois, but that area is not all blue these days.) I’m guessing this means the night will only get messier for Quinn. Or am I reading these tea leaves all wrong?

Watching Brad Schneider just concede was sweet.
Comment by Responsa Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 9:42 pm
Schneider has been called on the carpet and had the rug pulled out from under him.

North Shore Democrats, get your heads out of your asses and stop looking for more Brad Schneiders and Dan Seals. Until you find your own Dold, you will win an election every once in a while.
Comment by Amalia Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 9:51 pm
Cue the fat lady. Rauner has won.

Don’t blame me, I voted for Willy.
Comment by FormerParatrooper Tuesday, Nov 4, 14 @ 9:55 pm
In deep blue Illinois against OBERWEIS, Durbin gets 53% and with much more money spent on his behalf. Truax probably would have come closer.
