— Suburban voters see more options in local elections this year – Jake Griffin
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20190309/suburban-voters-see-more-options-in-local-elections-this-year
(FROM THE ARTICLE: For the first time in a decade, more local races will be contested this year than in the previous municipal election. In some cases, there are more contested races this year than in 2015 as well. On average, nearly 37 percent of the suburban races will be contested in those counties this election, according to a Daily Herald analysis of election data. “There’s a lot more activism and a lot more youthful activism,” said David Orr, the former Cook County clerk who retired last year. “Part of it is that people just want to get out there and make a difference. There’s also (President Donald) Trump motivating some, but not in a favorable way.” In suburban Cook County, voters will have a choice in 35.9 percent of the races this year, up from 30 percent in 2017. In DuPage County, voters have options in 37 percent of the races, versus the 31.1 percent of contested races in 2017.)

— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Because the Democrats who run Illinois ever-increasingly make it clear that they want to drive members of the following groups out of Illinois, it is ever-increasingly difficult for them to be optimistic about Illinois’ future: Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older people, rich people, gun owners, German Americans, draft avoiders, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.
