Illinois Supreme Court rejects clerk’s request in tight state legislative race – Chicago Tribune*

The Illinois Supreme Court, in an unsigned order Monday, rejected a request by the DuPage County clerk to lift a local judge’s ruling directing the clerk on how she should verify the authenticity of late-arriving mailed-in ballots. Last week DuPage County Circuit Judge James Orel sided with state Rep. Deanne Mazzochi and ordered DuPage County Clerk Jean Kaczmarek to certify the validity of mail-in ballots using the voter registration signature on file - not the signatures of vote-by-mail applications -  to verify mailed-in ballot signatures.

And she is still pushing back against following the Judge’s orders. What is she afraid of? Her job is to ensure Integrity in our elections, not cover for her malfeasance. The optics do not look good, but then again, she does not care. Winning for the Dem’s at all cost, including cheating if need be.

Haha. Yes. Whenever your candidate loses it’s because of cheating. No proof just whining. Just another day for you I see.

Mark Glennon on AM560’s Morning Answer: Chicago pension buyout plan mostly shifts debt rather than eliminating it, property tax surge doubles inflation over three decades

Chicago’s political leadership is floating a pension buyout program as evidence it is seriously addressing the city’s thirty-six-billion-dollar unfunded pension liability, but Mark Glennon, founder of the Illinois policy research organization Wirepoints, said that the proposal moves debt from one column to another rather than reducing it, and that the broader fiscal picture facing the city continues to deteriorate across every measurable dimension.
