I'm actually quite surprised Quinn managed to pull it off.

I wonder if the GOP can actually beat the Dem in the gubernatorial race...

Considering you guys lost to Rod Blagojevich by double-digits, I wouldn't hold your breath.

Brady now up 2445

Quinns approvals are in the tank. The Dems will have a tought year in 2010. And Brady must have run one heck of campaign and has a motivated base most likely. I would say, anything is possible.

[cinyc]

It's Quinn vs. Brady.

Eh.  Probably.  But with most of what's out in Cook County, where Brady's getting killed, I wouldn't be so sure, unless I knew exactly what part of Cook is still out.  The missing St. Clair precincts may offset Cook.

I probably would have voted for Blago once I got a chance to see him on TV.  He's certainly more entertaining than your usual GOP crook.

that was before the scandal

[ill ind]

I thin I posted above that half of the Cook County precincts are in CD's 1,2,7 which are African American Districts adn would give Dillar and Brady 200 votes between them at best.

He still had one of the lowest approval ratings in the country before that.

Is there any site that does the results by county so we could make a map real quick?

Thank you!

Red = Brady
Blue = Dillard
Yellow = McKenna
Green = Andr..polish dude
Cyan = Ryan

Brady up 330.

The people over at Capitol Fax (an Illinois Politics blog) predict Brady by about 700.  Absentees will then come into play.

Best I can tell from the AP + Cook County's website, 171 of the missing Cook County precincts are in Chicago.  94 are in the suburbs.

[Meeker]

Awesome Don! Do you have time to make the other Governor and Senate maps as well?

[ill ind]

Brady up 2255

275 Cook County precincts and 6 DuPage are all thats left.

The Chicago Sun-Times describes the Republican primary as "an epic battle". Truer words have never been printed.

Ill_Ind

171 Chicago
94 Suburban Cook
6 DuPage

Edit: Another 13 suburban Cook should be reporting shortly - up on the Cook County website.  So it's 81 Suburban Cook.

DuPage should be all in in the next update as well.  

DuPage differential:
Dillard +263
Brady +46
from AP results - net gain Dillard+ 217

Love the map.

Dem Governor:

Quinn = Green
Hynes = Blue

Brady adopted the same strategy this time as he did 4 years ago.  Ignore Chicago and the collar counties and get in on the downstate vote.  Appears to have worked better this time around.

When you only need 21% to win, it can certainly work...

Considering you guys lost to Rod Blagojevich by double-digits, I wouldn't hold your breath.

Horrible person, good campaigner, and, in the case of 2006, no oxygen for Republicans in Democratic strongholds....Now, with an incumbent?

Thank you for providing the political response to my smart-ass non-political one.
