Republican DIRTY TRICKS on the Illinois ballot!!!! Congressional race.
The Democrat running against Henry Hyde was not in the correct District on the sample ballot that was printed in the newspapers!

Christine Cegelis was listed in a district to be running against a repuke who is actually running unopposed. They had Henry Hyde listed on the ballot as running unopposed! This is in Dupage County in Illinois. These people will do ANYTHING to win. The election official from Dupage County said it was an unfortunate mistake, uh huh, riiight, we believe you! NOT! He said they are scurrying to fix the ballots. Bastards. Cegelis received 43% of the votes 2 years ago and has a VERY good chance of beating Henry Hyde. Would that be SWEET or what? If only they could print her name on the damn ballot!

This was just reported on our local news. I don't have a link. :hi:

3. That's a GOOD thing, isn't it?
Repukes that see it will think their guy's running unopposed...why bother to vote?

Although they'll all be showing up for Bush anyway.
