IL-3 Dem Primary: Election Day!

He’s not moderate on economics, and he literally supports a constitutional amendment against gay marriage. I don’t usually dislike Democrats for being too right-wing, but this is different.

So he's an even better congressman than the GOAT Stephen Lynch. Got it!

As much as I dislike Lipinski, he surely could've won the seat on his own without being given it.

Definitely. Much unlike Bernie's spoiled child.

Beautiful!  I wonder how many votes Raul Grijalva will sway.

Such a strong and positive ad. Really the most - or one of the most - honorable men to come out of Chicago in the history of the western world.

The part that I might well be missing here is where is Lipinski's record or history as a Neo-Nazi or European style Fascist?

I don't take this lightly, considering that my Sister is Jewish and in my younger years a few decades back participated in various "Antifa" style demonstrations against the Nazi scum trying to take over our neighborhoods in the Pacific Northwest as well as the Industrial States of the Midwest, and a few years after getting out of College in the Midwest came back to my small Oregon Town and within a year a Native American Homeless man was murdered by two White Supremacists barely a year out of the State Pen....

Hey---- I would rather the Progressive Dem have won this race, but anyone accusing a Polish-American of being a Nazi sounds a bit off in my book...

I could be wrong but from what I gather, a literal holocaust denier won as the sole candidate in the GOP primary in the same district, and I assume that's who the Nazi references are to.

yeah and then a couple posters engaging in some absurd hyperbole claiming that a Nazi is somehow equivalent or preferable to a conservative Democrat

btw NOVA he was endorsed by IL AFL-CIO most of the blue collar unions, so you can like that about him.  My impression is he benefits in 2020 from higher primary turnout, unless there's a challenger that can break through and appeal to the urban hispanic/black/'ethnic' vote.

I never claimed it was equivalent. I said Dems should cast blank ballots for House to make the vote closer than expected in order to remind Lipinski that he needs their support too.

I mean I would cast a blank vote if it were between Newman and the Nazi guy so I can't really complain about doing that, though I'm not sure about your rationale here making much sense.  Seems like some others were saying something more extreme though.

A Nazi vs. someone who doesn't hate gay people. Hmmm, tough decision, I think I'd cast a blank vote too.

Well, I can certainly say I wouldn't be voting for Newman in that race. She would be objectively the worst path for the country. Thank goodness we don't have the choice between two terribles.
