If I a) had not earned a master’s degree in accounting in 1980, b) passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and c) became a licensed CPA in 1981, GAO would not have promoted me in 1986.

https://www.mysuburbanlife.com/2020/11/11/dupage-county-board-democrats-ride-blue-wave-in-election/a9q08ay/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “We’ve got demographic shifts that are working in our favor,” said Greg Hose, a Democratic Downers Grove commissioner. . .“A lot of people voted Democratic at the top of the ticket, but they changed and came back to Republicans,” Krajewski said, referring to local candidates elsewhere on the ballot. Krajewski is projected to retain his seat on the County Board, according to unofficial results, but his opponent, Gail Cabala-Lowry, garnered about 48% of the vote. Krajewski said his campaign made it a priority to focus on local issues. He added it remains unclear what direction the DuPage County GOP will take in the future to alter messaging. “They may need to do a better job,” Krajewski said. “What we’re seeing – I’ve seen it constantly in my district – I’ve seen a lot of people move out of the state of Illinois.” James Zay, the head of the DuPage County GOP, did not return requests for comment.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The council instead voting to table the discussions, passing the ordinance to city staff who will work to create a new resolution. The idea came from council member Jenn Carrillo who says instead of celebrating Columbus local business leaders should encourage the community to learn the history of native Americans and grieve at how they were treated. She says this is not meant to deny someone a day of pride but rather begin reparations for actions she says still have affects today. “When we lift up Columbus’s history,” Carrillo said. “We are lifting up a history of colonialism, genocide and white supremacy. That has no place in our world in 2020.” Several community members spoke during public comment against Carrillo’s decision. Many believe renaming the day is seen as a way of reversing history. “Don’t listen to these people guilt you about Columbus,” said Becky Swan to the council. “That was 300 years ago, this is Bloomington, this is today, what are you going to do in 2020.”)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Republicans are fuming that the Illinois Supreme Court has replaced Justice Thomas Kilbride, who lost his retention race last week, with a Democratic ally, saying the judicial maneuver is a slap in the face to voters. Justices voted 6-0 to name Appellate Judge Robert Carter to the bench as a placeholder until an election is held in two years. Carter is 74 and says he won’t run. “This is an outrageous decision,” Jon Zahm, who heads the Vote No for Kilbride committee, posted on Facebook. “The voters made clear they did not want politics as usual on the Supreme Court, as they voted an end to the 4-3 Democrat stranglehold on blocking important issues like fair maps, pension reform, lawsuit reform, and term limits.” Zahm said the three Republican justices “should have voted no and left the seat unfilled until the next election.” The hand-wringing over Kilbride’s replacement comes after Zahm and other Republicans waged a fierce battle to remake the highest court. They say Kilbride is beholden to Madigan and they point to an opinion he wrote that removed a referendum on the 2016 ballot that would have taken away Madigan’s power on redistricting. The House speaker donated $550,000 to Kilbride’s campaign to stay on the bench — he won 56 percent of the vote but needed 60 percent to keep his seat. Former 3rd District Appellate Court Judge Kent Slater, a Republican, told the Tribune’s Ray Long that Carter had been Kilbride’s choice to hold an appointed seat on the appellate for several years. “It’s like the Supreme Court’s patronage,” Slater said. – Shia Kapos

— OCTOBER 13, 2020 FLASHBACK: A group of Democratic south suburban mayors and elected officials have filed suit against the Democratic Bloom Township committeeman, Lori Wilcox, because of her plan to hold an in-person, candidate slating caucus in December rather than an open, spring primary for the 2021 municipal and township elections. Given the caucus typically draws 300 to 400 people in the same room, such a meeting would violate the governor’s executive order on large gatherings. The mayors group is concerned about a “super spreader event” if Wilcox’s planned candidate slating caucus moves forward. The emergency motion for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction filed by the Del Galdo Law Group will be heard Wednesday in Cook County Circuit Court. Wilcox told Playbook she had not yet seen the lawsuit and declined to comment. – Shia Kapos (DIERSEN: What is the status of this?)

https://www.wsj.com/livecoverage/latest-updates-biden-trump-election-2020/card/32vHNFTTc2xxNr7NITHY
(FROM THE ARTICLE: America’s political divisions are also economic divisions – and they are widening. That’s one message that comes through in the visual story-telling from our graphics team, published today, which shows how Republicans and Democrats are increasingly divided by the education levels, racial diversity and the amount of urban or rural character to their communities. Now, the Brookings Institution adds to the finding of a growing divide between metropolitan and non-metropolitan America. Joe Biden last week won 16% of the nation’s counties, but those counties account for 70% of nation’s economic activity, Brookings analysts report. By contrast, President Trump won 84% of counties, accounting for less than 30% of GDP. Their work shows an increasing divide between a high-output, Democratic-leaning part of the nation and a lower-output, Republican-leaning set of communities. In 2016, Brookings analysts found, Democrat Hillary Clinton won counties accounting for 64% of economic output, compared with Mr. Biden’s 70% share. Mr. Trump in 2016 won counties accounting for 36% of economic output, compared with his share of under 30% this year. That finding adds new data to a trend that the Journal also documented last year, showing that the two parties, in many ways, live in two different economies.)

According to NBC News, Hillary Clinton said that Biden should not concede the election ‘under any circumstances.’ SEE: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2020-election/hillary-clinton-says-biden-should-not-concede-2020-election-under-n1238156 )

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Some local Republicans who cast their ballots for President Trump are also vowing to continue the fight to keep him in the White House, adding that this election isn’t over. “We are in the second inning of this ball game, second. And the fact that people are rushing to come to a conclusion and to name a winner is absolutely ridiculous,” said Laura Pollastrini, 2020 Trump Delegate. They said ballots have yet to be counted and the president should not concede. “We know that he is a fighter. That is one of the reasons why we got elected four years ago,” said Will County GOP Chairman George Pearson. . .Going forward the Republicans voters said that the Republican Party should continue to follow President Trump’s blueprint on how to fight back.)

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Suburban school board member spoke up about racial injustice, then board tried to silence her “I’m not fitting into their box, I guess, because their box leaves out so many people,” said Jill Manrique, school board vice president at Niles Township District 219. – Nader Issa (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, under the Democrats and under the RINOs, Republicans are silenced. Ever-increasingly, under the moderates and under the liberals, conservatives are silenced.)
https://chicago.suntimes.com/education/2020/11/8/21554574/niles-schools-racism-school-board-social-injustice
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Jill Manrique feels she made her views on social injustice clear leading up to her election to the Niles Township school board in spring 2019. When another board hopeful, answering a question about racial equity at a candidate forum, said the district needed to be careful about “reverse racism,” Manrique chimed in, saying that concept isn’t real and explained why it’s important to fight for families of color. And since she was elected to the District 219 board that runs Niles West and Niles North high schools in north suburban Skokie, Manrique believes she has lived up to voters’ expectations that she would work toward social justice. A year and a half later, Manrique’s continued expression of those beliefs has been appreciated by some parents but caused uproar among others — so much so that her fellow board members adopted a resolution in a 5-2 vote last month that essentially aimed to silence her. Manrique, the board vice president, had “disparaged community members with viewpoints that are contrary to her own” and had “taken positions on controversial political and social issues” that don’t represent the board, the resolution read. The board accused Manrique of using social media to “disrespectfully respond to community members who have complained about her Twitter comments, at times mocking said community members.” The board “implores” Manrique to stop adversely impacting the district, it said. Board President David Ko said in a statement the resolution was meant to make clear that Manrique does not speak on behalf of the board. He did not answer several questions.)

— For the close races on the ballot in your precinct, as of yesterday, a) how many votes separate the candidates, b) how many ballots that your election authority has received but has not yet counted, and c) how many mail-in ballots have not yet been returned? See below for my DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 9. According to a report yesterday, the DuPage County Election Division is processing 24,000 vote-by-mail ballots (VBM) that came in Friday-Monday that the signatures were verified on and those will be posted soon and there are 2,547 provisional ballots and 23,000 VBM ballots that have not been returned yet. Of the 14 ballots added yesterday for my precinct, for president, 10 voted for Biden, 3 voted for Trump, and 1 for Jorgensen. – Dave Diersen
