It's just local politics. Small towns for decades have run candidates on a citizen's or people's party line in Illinois, and probably other states too. We don't have a citizen's or people's party for local elections so when I added these races I used what we had. If we decide to create a citizen's and people's party for small towns I will change all the races I created over the years to those.

It is too bad we won't know how Maharishi Vedic City actually votes since it is not its own precinct. The precinct the city is in was consolidated with two other precincts, and Maharishi Vedic City constitutes only 14% of the total population.

They are from individual county election websites. Kansas hasn't released the full results yet and probably won't. If the write-ins aren't included in the official FEC document, we can remove them.

The Minnesota Attorney General gets paid $101,451 a year, and the Hennepin County Attorney gets paid between $176,000 and $195,000. So that can be a motive.

I read an old newspaper interview with Wallace in 1959, in which he said he had registered as an independent throughout most of the 1950s and did not belong to either political party. He also mentioned in the interview that he voted for Theodore Roosevelt in 1912 and Robert LaFollette in 1924.

It is possible. Al Williams's biography says he was a delegate to six Democratic conventions and C. A. "Al" Williams was elected as a delegate to the 1972 Democratic Convention.

Many years ago, it appears that I made the same mistake with Bettendorf's voter registration as I did with Davenport. May someone help me clean it up? Thank you.

I have no idea what is happening with Davenport's voter registration. I tried cleaning it up, but I think I made it worse.

I have been going down the list of Illinois counties and adding them from time to time. I will get to this one eventually unless someone else wants to.

In multi-member districts, all candidates are elected in the year of redistricting, and their terms are staggered. As I have been adding Illinois elections, I have placed all candidates in one container unless it has already been determined who was elected for the 4-year term and who was elected for the 2-year term.

This is why I hate multi-member districts.
Some members will be up in 2024, and the rest will be up in 2026. It just depends on what terms are decided upon. In Rock Island County, they draw lots to determine who gets the four-year term and who gets the two-year term. I am unsure if DuPage selects there the same way.

Not surprising. The Republicans attempted to get him to run for Cook County Board President back in 2010.

I don't usually contribute to site discussion. Still, in the past, when this has happened to me, I went to another device where I was logged into ourcampaigns (i.e., cell phone, tablet, another computer), and I changed the password through that, and I was then able to log in through my main computer.

As this is my home district, it makes a little more sense than the others because it now connects both WIU campuses in the same legislative district. Though I know, that was not the intent.

Based on her FEC paperwork, yes. She has a residence in Rockford and apparently worked 18 years in Chicago in the finance industry.

Each member casts their own weighted vote. So both male and female committee members cast separate votes which is why the numbers are high.

I was wondering if someone who knows how could add a township map for Rock Island County? I would, but I'm not sure I'm skilled enough to. Thanks!
