Default Only in IL

Finally as many have been doing for years we will all be asked to vote twice for the same office because of the 'still poluted Obama Senate Seat"


Voting Twice

Illinois voters in November will indeed vote twice for that one elected office. The double voting, prompted by a judge’s ruling last week, is the result of a lawsuit filed after no special election was held to fill the seat after Obama left it.

The voters will pick a replacement for the remaining two months of Obama’s original term and someone to begin a six-year term in January 2011. That creates the possibility that Kirk or Giannoulias could win the shorter term while losing the longer one.
