they've got to run a better candidate in that district

it's not really swing, but that throws a wrench into any possibility of getting that seat

The dude is literally winning by default.

The incumbent or the Arthur Jones?

Arthur Jones in the GOP primary

as a person who lives in illinois I can safely say that is probably one of the least shady politicians I have seen in illinois in my life

Yeah he looks like a mafia dude to an outsider though

I remember once I traveled down to a nicer part of mexico

and I'd tell people I was from chicago

and they'd ask something along the lines of "Como se siente al ser disparado"

I'll let google translate tell you what that means

"how does it feel to be shot"

hmmm

fucking arthur jones

rip

Where the illinois bois at

AYyyyyyy

Is Rauner really the only chance we got for governor? Ives has no money, right?

Rauner has such low approval that Ives is probably the best chance you've got.

IL is fucked either way, bankrupt state and politicians are crooks and jewwwws

March 20th,

Illinois primaries

Vote

kk

why'd you tag me

This will be an important race to watch, like the Texas primaries,

there is a Clinton-Republican and Trump-Democrat district here,

IL-06 (C-R), IL-17 (T-D)

it will be interesting to see if Republicans can get more votes than Democrats this time

one can hope.

we'll definitely need it

at this point in time I can say we will almost certainly lose TX-23

but IL-06 could serve as a barrier for all we know

Will Hurd's district?

yeah

Will Hurd's a faggot, but still better than a dem

Beto will be able to drive Mexicans to the polls, so I'll have to agree with you.

Man that northern district in nj is all red except in the eastern most part

Gerrymandering is brutal, when Democrats do it.

Maryland is even more ridiculous.

They used gerrymandering to basically flip the Appalachian WV-type areas blue.

@Nuke accuse the enemy of everything you do
-a typical democrat folk saying

@Lotus Calme Basically yeah, if you look at Louisiana we could probably gerrymander the districts but we still comply to the VRA's unconstitutional mandate that Louisiana has to have a majority-black CD for New Orleans, _even though that provision of the VRA has been struck down by the Supreme Court_!

That might be partially because that district now includes half of Louisiana's major cities, though.

*eye roll*

It's a perfect example of Republicans not gerrymandering really.

But Democrats say that it's "packing" so that Democrats will all be one district now that it's not something Louisiana is forced to do by law.

hahah

Primaries on Tuesday.

Competitive House Races according to Sabato:

IL 6, IL 12, IL 13, IL 14.

Don't understand most of these, especially not including the district Trump won, IL 17, in the competitive races.

VOTE IN IL17

FLIP

FLIP

How are things in Illinois?

no results until 5 hours

Okay. Are we predicted to do decently at least?

it's illinois

You never know, the way things are things can flip on their head.

maybe, but I don't really see signs of things changing really, if it does, I probably won't know why

GOVERNER MILKMAN

So we’ve got it locked in

"GOVERNER MILKMAN"

Make that an emote

Noise

Oh wait it’s the gay flag

Things to watch tonight:

GOP Gubernatorial Primary

IL-06 Primaries

IL-17 Primaries

https://twitter.com/BenBradleyTV/status/976296544314957824

only way for Rauner to win is for Pritzker to be caught molesting kids

Even if he did the media would cover it up.

More than 40% of all residents of Illinois live in Cook County.

>mfw I hear this

😢

What’s up with Cook County?

Chicago

Third largest US city and it's mostly black

Obama's home county

A Little Egypt colonization project would work wonders.

Same with Liberia

<@&414861628769697822> Who wants to fill this out

https://redstorm2018.wordpress.com/2018/03/22/Illinois/

<@&414861628769697822> Who wants to be State Manager?

Sure

@VELV0C just made you State Manager

Lol

Alright

fastest promotion ever

Agreed

you'll basically be in charge of leading the people in this group who are from Illinois

informing us of any important Illinois happenings

that kind of thing

Ah

Got it

Ez

are you voting for Rauner or refraining?

I’m honestly mixed on that

He is an idioot

But he is republican

And I don’t want a Democrat in office

So I suppose

November 6th

I know next to nothing about J.B Pritzker

what are your thoughts on him

Haven’t studied him a lot I’ve been more national politics and city politics then state

So I couldn’t make an educated opinion on him though I will be sure to learn some more about him

Uh oh

Well just read up on a wiretap of him and our convinced former Governor making some bad remarks towards African Americans

<:chocolatemilkdiversityman:425743504853958666>

Yea

That pissed me off

Pritzker?

“Much diversity”

Yea

he's almost certainly the victor though

I dunno, man.

I hear that both the left and the right hate Rauner

Sorry commenting on Rauner with the milk

We do

Diversity Chocolate Milk Man might pull off an upset.

He acts like a liberal

But then switches to help Republicans

Doesn't matter. He may be a moderate/liberal Republican but he's still the Governor of Illinois and the Republican nominee.

True

With the rappers, and the Pritzker scandal, and enough Republicans holding their noses, then he can slide through and win.

Which is why he needs to be re-elected

Yep, simple as that.

Just imagine how much worse it would be under the Dem.

Though one thing I wanted to bring up is this

https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.usatoday.com/amp/488987002

It would be trash

Are senators suck

Our*

I’ll talk more about this in the morning but we need to worry about this. I need some sleep though i have an early morning.

Yo anyone from Chiraq here yet?

That town’s government is in violation of both the 2nd, and 8th amendment.

Yep

Wondering why it’s still in effect

Excessive fines are not prohibited for state governments.

Yea

Welcome @Commander

Some kid threatened me if I decided to wear this to school

wear what

@Deleted User

Sorry I thought it uploaded

I mean that's pretty moderate

With my life

I was just hopping out of my schools shower just barely got my underwear on then 3 black kids jumped me and threatened to rip it up and beat the shot outta me

I’m saying black kids because I know everyone of them but I’d prefer not to say there name

Hi saying black kids because I know everyone of them but I’d prefer not to say there name, I'm Dad!

glorious

but anyways, you've got to defend yourself against that kind of shit

Fucking bullshit

I know but I can’t bring guns on campus

I mean you don't have to go that far

But I’ve heard he is a pussy ass bitch

But his buddy with him wasn’t

@VELV0C

you actually use your school's showers ?

Yea

They clean are shit

And we don’t stare

Simple as that

you've got to show them you aren't their bitches, you've got to fuck em up

Lol and take 3 of them

I don't know, brass knuckles

under gloves

Oh god

whatever the fuck works

Brass knuckles are banned

Under gloves omg I would look gay af

I mean if you want to go legit fist to fist you can do that too

True

just got to bulk up

@VELV0C you go to school in Chicago or something ?

Yea

Why?

ah that's fucked

definitely tough up and don't take any shit

did you get a hint they were bluffing?

Na

He was pissed

I know I can take 2 of them

But the other guy is on literal steroids

So I was like yea fuck..

alright, so you definitely got to bulk up and fuck em all if they try shit

Like I’ve fought 1 of them before

Lol true

They come to my house I’m shooting them

do you have like a clean record at your school btw, do you care about suspensions and that kind of stuff

My record is crystal besides like 1 detention

4 years no issues

hmmm

might not be worth that

Wait

but if they do shit, defend yourself

One of them is trying to join the marines

If he tries to fight me

Can he ruin his chances at joining

is that the big tough one

Yea

alright so call him out on it

Well I don’t know the rules behind it

Yeah that can get him fucked out of the Marines

Like if it can happen or not

he doesn't know either

Can someone 100% confirm

You can't just beat the shit out of people and apply for the military because it's a gang risk

"go ahead big shot, hit me"

but hold on

I'm not 100% certain

Hi not 100% certain, I'm Dad!

classic

I want to confirm before I tell him

back in school when people gave me shit I threatened escalation all the time and they always backed out

I’ll tell him to fuck off

I'm against the dad bot.

Hi against the dad bot., I'm Dad!

I'm dad bot.

Hi dad bot., I'm Dad!

He has daddy issues and is using the marines to go

I'm dad.

Hi dad., I'm Dad!

I'm dad

No you're not, you're Nuke

heh

HAHAHHA

Tell him to go beat up his daddy before he joins the Marines

He already did

That's 100% disqualification.
