After getting heavily criticized by some readers for yesterday’s article about misconduct in Illinois’ early mail-in election processes, I’ve got more startling news for the non-believing readers who believe all is legitimate in the Illinois’ corrupt-appearing election process.
It was reported that 2,600 inmates in more than 35 various Illinois Counties received applications and ballots to vote for the 2010 Midterm Elections at their jail. The applications and ballots were delivered by-hand from the Chicago Board of Elections. Of course, anything Chicago equates to all things Democrat.
The contrast was mentioned, naturally, that the numbers of inmates receiving applications and ballots to assist them in voting are approximately the same number of servicemen and servicewomen in foreign countries who will most likely not be able to vote since Illinois sent the ballots out late. It was also mentioned that, by law, incarcerated persons are not supposed to vote.
What is Illinois’ leader, Governor Pat Quinn, doing during all of these happenings? Apparently, he learned well from his predecessor – and he’s allegedly doing absolutely nothing about it.
If there is anything else that Illinois can do to illegalize the 2010 Midterm Elections in Illinois, it appears as though they’ll certainly do it by next Tuesday, Election Day.
Again, I suggest that Illinois postpone its elections until everything is made legal and just. Get on it, Quinn. Everyone knows where the buck stops.

you're liar and you know it.
Republicans always lie and you are lying.
You're just another liberal in denial that's as responsible as Obama for ruining this once-great country.
I honestly don't know whether the above comment is serious (and if it is then welcome to delusion-ville, population YOU) or if its a tongue-in-cheek caricature (in which case its brilliant).
Chicago Board of Elections conduct in this matter is reprehensible.
You're right. The Chicago Board of Elections has repeatedly broken the law in the pre-election activities for next week's election. Nobody's bringing me a ballot hand-delivered to my door - and I can "legally" vote!
Since when do prisoners get to vote? Other than the prisoners released by Quinn after he took over Blago's position, that is... Chicago politics and Quinn must go! Now... or at least by Nov. 2.
Actually you ARE liar. The law says CONVICTED inmates may not vote. There are a lot of people behind bars who are awaiting trial and UNTIL convicted have the right to vote.
Try telling the truth liar.
When the people serve another purpose they will use them to vote that is why they hand delivered their ballot, but wont have the ex-offenders get job! The corruption in Chicago continue!!!
