52%!!! This was a pay to play straw poll which holds quite a bit of weight. Hopefully this will translate to a primary victory in Obama's home state.

This was my first official vote for Ron Paul and I loved it :)

Old news is old. Says November 5 for a reason.

There was a lot of this on here over the weekend. People were pissed that they broke out the online vote separately since there was only in person voting in the Romney suburbs and the City of Chicago and rural areas (to name two) didn't have it. Of COURSE people living hours away voted on line, and they all had to be registered Illinois voters.
