1. Great report!

Being a volunteer for Christine in one of the Cook County townships, it's especially hard to know that she lost the election there. Maybe if I and others had talked to a few more people in those precincts, we may have won. Also, closing down one of the polling places in Hanover township, I had first hand experience on how f***ed up the vote counting machines were in the polling place. There were 3 precincts in my polling place and the machine that transmitted and printed out the results literally ran out of paper during the printing out of the 2nd of the 3 precincts.
