I think Ill. is an exception due to the sheer strength of the party machine in Cook County.

There have been significant ("mass" is overstating it) defections to the Progressives, but no, not a sufficient number to unseat the Democratic control, particularly in Illinois.

After a small Representative from Texas. Obviously the Governor can't take a little criticism, and it won't be just Donald Trump level, it's just saying how these policies will turn Texas into that. And I'm not really attacking the Progressive party, more accurately the Democrat party.

Sounds like your'e talking trash Illinois.

But enough to potentially endanger the Democrats in the next state election, right?

Not particularly so. In the last election, 72 of the 116 districts had only a single candidate running-no challengers whatsoever. Many of the races that did have a challenger were won by 2-1 or even 3-1 margins. The Progressives split the vote, technically, but they're in a position where the majority of the chamber lacks a challenger entirely-there is no vote to split, and many of the others are so firmly ensconced that splitting would hardly do any good.

Welcome to the machine.

(If you want to be further discouraged, it's even worse in the Senate. Twenty-seven of the forty races were unopposed. Of the ones that technically had an opponent, exactly one race had less than a five-percent margin of victory, many were double-digits.)

Well every Texan knows Texas is better than IL, especially A IL that's in a poor state, though Im not attacking IL, but it's government policies. That's not just the Governor,

Chewion, you need to put together either a mock bill, or a specific description of it before passing it.

Yep. The undecided voters at this point are probably unsure Democrats, this will help galvanize the left against corrupt Fox.

I don't know if an outright Endorsement from Drumpf would end out right now. Maybe later, though what do you think about now?

If he comes after you Governor Kiser will defend you as well as Senate Majority Leader Carter.

Maybe later. I'm too stressed right now deciding if I should drop a duel credit class so it won't affect my application to college. Let me eat and get some rest and I'll try to do it later tonight. I'm sorry I just can't right now.
