It is your right to vote. Please take the opportunity to do so. Illinois needs new leadership. Look beyond party loyalties and do what is right for the state of Illinois. When I sold municipal bonds back in the 70's, the State of Illinois General Obligation bonds had a Moody's rating of Aaa. Now it's A1, having been cut in June from Aa3. Our debt is in the $25 billion range! Doesn't that sound more like a country's debt?
Remember that famous guy from Illinois, Abe Lincoln, said in the Gettysburg Address, " that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth." It seems as though it has perished from Illinois.
