Whoever wins in heavily Democratic Cook County will have a major advantage in November’s general election. The winner will face former Chicago Ald. Bob Fioretti, an attorney who previously ran for the post as a Democrat but this year is running as a Republican. Cook County voters have not elected a Republican as state’s attorney since 1992.
The fix was in early when the Democrats put their guy Bob Fioretti on the Republican ballot.

An article on Thursday stated that 66,000 mail in ballots arrived on Wednesday one day after the election. Anybody out there who doesn’t believe the fix is in for the States Attorney is clearly of diminished mental capacities. 66K on the day after the election, what a f’ing joke!
I’m sure the city clerk is carefully reviewing every postmark on those ballots to make sure it was stamped on or before election day, right?

Are mail in ballots audited? They seem to know how many have not been returned. Will we get a final tally on mail in. For example 500,000 mailed out and 510,000 returned. Or will they stop counting at some point name Harris the winner and say based on what’s outstanding Burke can’t win?

Harris will win, Preckwinckle and the machine cannot afford a defeat. The ballot manufacturing room is busy churning out the needed votes to insure a win. Question, will Burke scream or protest the fixed election? Will she be rewarded by Pritzger will a cushy state job or by the County?

Especially when 65,000 votes will go to the Preckwinkle backed candidate.
