X posted: "Democrats: DuPage elections have Republican bias"

It's easy, in a county where 100 percent of the elected officials are Republican, to believe there must be some sort of bias and favoritism exhibited by the ruling party officials.

That's what local Democrats claimed this week, when they said, among other things, that the DuPage Election Commission has Republican cronies on the payroll and favored Republicans in recent ballot disputes.

The commission answered the charges, saying the ballot disputes were resolved fairly and that it also has a Democratic crony on the payroll. You can read more in Friday's Sun.

What's your impression of the election process in DuPage? Do you think it's on the up-and-up? Do you trust that elections are being conducted in a legal and fair manner? Or do you believe that illegal and unethical practices are being allowed to happen?

some responses (most responses) are a bit...UGH!
("What in the world are the dems thinking? DuPage is a Republican county and will always be a Republican county. We have as much need for dems here as we have for the ACLU or gun control. Things run just fine in DuPage County with all Republicans running everything. We don’t need any dems coming around and mucking things up.")
