Bruce Rauner wins primary race for Governor

     

    Political Source (PS)   It's a day we have been expecting.Bruce Rauner is the Illinois pick for Governor. After almost 3 months of battering campaign adds by the Democrats Bruce has done it. Over the past 3 months it's been a back and fourth struggle with the Republicans and Democrats attacking his vote from either way. The democrats make false accusations of abuse from business Rauner owned. Other Republican candidates calling him a democrat in Republican attire.He has no proven more than ever that he has what it takes to run for and possibly win the seat for governor. Coming out strong in the primary elections after being cut down and made out a horrible person via media, and hate adds. Rauner a Republican from Winnetka, IL whom is 57  has a successful business career and seems to have a chance at beating our current incumbent. With Millions of his own money, Pat Quinn and Speaker Michael Madigan, 71, have their hands full.  If Bruce Rauner brings his A game to this race, he will really shake the tight control and major shareholders in this state. The Rauner campaign has surprised us and shall continue. We only hope for the sake of current Governor Pat Quinn, that if Rauner win's Mr. Quinn doesent end up in prison along side his 4 previous predecessors.

Oberwies win's Primary against power house Doug Truax

           

                                       Jim Oberwies   (R)          Doug Truax (R)

      Republican Douglas Lee Truax loses primary against Jim Oberwies. Jim Oberwies being a returning candidate won the race by a close call. Now for the next few months to see where this run will lead.  Doug Truax a first time politician ran a better than expected race. With Truax taking 44% percent and Oberwies taking 56% with over 78% of the votes counted, Truax conceded to Oberwies reports say. Now this election cycle has ended we will see where lead us in the general elections. Jim being known for wining a state senate seat in 2013 will now again be in the runs for a seat in Washington, DC. The American business man and owner of the famous Oberwies milk we all love will be up to represent us in the US senate. We can only hope this attempt goes as planned for Oberwies. Also don't think we have seen the last of Doug Truax, his campaign reminding us of only one other recent Illinois candidate, that being Dave Carlson in 2012 for States attorney. With more and more talented candidates coming to light every day we could finally see some great changes.

Primary elections near Will County residents ready to vote

   

With primary elections right around the corner, what are the choices going to be in Will county? This years race should be tight. With candidates running for all sorts of seats the question will be whom will win? In the 11th District there is a lot of tension at the moment with four candidates running to try and have a chance to beat the incumbent Bill Foster. As races prepare and candidates line up for the primary we wonder whom will be in the running come November. With an estimated 13.6 million dollars spent in Will County alone so far for this primary, will there be a complete oust to a lot of the good old boy's club in Will County? Will the new faces join in with the likes of well known hard working public servants such as Dave Carlson, Larry Hug, and Bob O'Dekirk.  Or will they fall under the career politicians ranks with Larry Walsh, James Glasgow, and the many others in their ranks. Only time and votes can tell!
