CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Senior ranger may unseat Joseph Cantore as DuPage Forest Preserve District president – Chuck Fieldman (DIERSEN: What are your sources of income? Needless-to-say, if I ran for any kind of government or political office, my opponents would follow Hebreard’s lead and call for a) cutting, if not eliminating, my Civil Service Retirement System pension, b) cutting, if not eliminating, my Social Security and Medicare, and c) cutting, if not eliminating, my federal health, dental, and vision insurance subsidies.)
https://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/oak-brook/news/ct-dob-forest-preserve-president-tl-1129-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Hebreard campaigned on pushing for abolishing any pensions and all health care benefits for current and future forest preserve board members, and reducing the salaries by 70 to 75 percent. While he will be new to the office if results hold up, Hebreard is not at all new to the Forest Preserve District of DuPage County. The 41-year-old Downers Grove native has worked for the district for the past 13 ½ years, including the past 10 as a senior ranger. “As a park ranger, we’re on the front lines with residents and users, so we get a very good idea of what people want and what’s needed,” Hebreard said. Hebreard earned a bachelor’s degree in parks and recreation management from the University of Illinois, before starting his career at the Palos Heights Recreation Department and the city of Yorkville Recreation Department.)

KANE COUNTY CHRONICLE
— Thankful and not thankful – Carol Kloskowski (DIERSEN: Who blasts you for not being thankful enough? I should write a book about those who blast me for not being thankful enough. According to them, I would not have anything now a) if I had not been born a healthy White male, b) if I had not avoided the draft, c) if the federal government had not grossly overpaid me, d) if I had not gotten married, e) if my wife had not always had income, f) if we had not given up trying to have children, g) if we had adopted, h) if we had become foster parents, and i) if my retirement benefits were not so overly generous. In my defense, I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32.)

Joshua Partlow and Josh Dawsey (DIERSEN: What if many thousands of U.S. citizens formed caravans seeking refuge status and attempted to invade Canada, Mexico, and other foreign countries? They would shout that they are poor and that they are poor because they are being discriminated against and oppressed by the United States, and especially discriminated against and oppressed by individuals, organizations, companies, municipalities, townships/wards, counties, and states that are Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, rich, gun owners, draft avoiders, German American, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Hyde-Smith’s campaign did not respond to a request for comment. On Tuesday night, the Associated Press reported that Hyde-Smith had apologized for her “public hanging” comment, saying there was “no ill will.” “I’ve never been hurtful to anyone,” Hyde-Smith said in a debate against Espy, according to the AP. “This comment was twisted. It was turned into a weapon to be used against me.” . . . At the White House on Tuesday, before leaving for Florida, President Donald Trump said that Hyde-Smith’s comment about attending a public hanging was made “in jest” and she “feels bad” about it. He went on to predict that she will still win the Mississippi runoff against Espy.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Call it a second blue wave. With mail-in ballots finally counted in Lake County, Democrat Mary Edly-Allen defeated Republican state Rep. Helene Miller Walsh. It was one of four races to swing from red to blue Monday, two weeks after the general election. In the Lake County Sheriff’s race, Democrat John Idleburg defeated incumbent Republican Mark Curran. Because just 137 votes separate the candidates, Curran is expected to ask for a recount. . .Lake County is considered a battleground area. So everyone has a view on why it’s swinging more left in this election cycle. Were voters pushed there by President Donald Trump’s rhetoric? One Democratic campaign strategist credits J.B. Pritzker’s investment of millions of dollars in mail ballots for giving Edly-Allen and other Lake County races a boost. “Those down-ballot races are won on the margins and being able to have that program and money taken care of from the top of the ticket is huge,” he said. A GOP lawmaker grumbles that it was Gov. Bruce Rauner’s negatives that pulled Republican candidates down in Lake County. And a Democratic observer says those anti-Mike Madigan ads back-fired. – SHIA KAPOS and ADRIENNE HURST

LEGAL READER
— Eight men are suing retailer Saks Fifth Avenue, alleging that its New York City outlets discriminated against them on grounds of race and age – Ryan J. Farrick (DIERSEN: During the 1980s, and 1990s, GAO discriminated against all its employees in its Chicago office a) who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran and b) who had not made GS-13 (currently $96,403) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $113,920) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $134,000) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $164,200) by age 40. None of the aforesaid employees joined the agency-wide class action lawsuit that charged GAO with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation like I did. Instead, they “cut deals” with GAO to keep their jobs. Those deals included a) forcing me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, b) giving me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, c) always ranking me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, d) not promoting me beyond GS-13, e) getting rid of my mentor in 1987, f) keeping me off audits of IRS, and g) forcing me to take a $19,203 (26%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.)

They blame me for their problems, for your problems, for my problems, and for everyone’s problems. Needless-to-say, those who do not support Republican primary winners should not be allowed to be Republican precinct committeeman/captains or hold or seek any kind of government or political office as a Republican.)

To vote for Democrats is to shout that you want all the governments in America to give massive public assistance and massive preference to immigrants, and especially to immigrants who are minority, female, younger, and/or poor. What percent of today’s immigrants are minority, female, younger, and/or poor – 97%, 98%, 99%?)

November 19 Morning Edition

DAILY HERALD
— Contested mayoral races expected in Naperville, Wheaton, Downers Grove (DIERSEN: Ronald Almiron has also filed for an at-large seat on the Wheaton City Council.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20181119/contested-mayoral-races-expected-in-naperville-wheaton-downers-grove–
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In Wheaton, Councilman John Prendiville officially launched his campaign as the first mayoral candidate to submit nominating petitions to appear on the April ballot. Prendiville turned in his paperwork at the city clerk’s office when the filing period opened at 8 a.m. in order to claim the first spot on the ballot in the April 2 election. Another longtime council member, Phil Suess, also has announced his bid to succeed Mayor Michael Gresk, who is stepping down after three terms. Prendiville served on the council from 2007 to 2011 and again since 2013 after an unsuccessful run to unseat Gresk as mayor. He is the managing director and senior managing counsel for The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation, a firm that acts as a trustee for municipal bond issues. Prendiville already is touting endorsements from two former mayors, Jim Carr and Gwen Henry. Gresk has said he will not make an endorsement in the race. “I really enjoyed my time on the city council I’d like to keep the city on the track that we’ve been on,” Prendiville said. “We’ve been very fiscally responsible and I think that is the basis for everything we do as a city in terms of providing services and maintaining our infrastructure and I enjoy working with everybody and I think that my ability to work with others is one of the reasons why I’ve gotten the support so far.” Incumbent Suzanne Fitch filed Monday to run for re-election for her at-large council seat. The other at-large seat — held by Prendiville — also is up for grabs. The Wheaton City Council is composed of six representatives and the mayor. Four council members represent the city’s four voting districts, while two members and the mayor are elected at-large. Five residents — Paula Mesch, Bruce Fogerty, Reda Karaliukas, David Diersen (DIERSEN: I pulled a nominating packet for someone else, not for myself.) and Jeremy Parker — have pulled nominating packets from the city clerk’s office but have not yet filed. It’s not yet clear which offices they would seek. The filing period runs until 5 p.m. Nov. 26. If more than four mayoral candidates or if more than eight at-large city council member candidates emerge, a primary will be held Feb. 26 to narrow the field.)
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD: Will voters stay energized for local elections? – Jake Griffin (DIERSEN: Because Democrats were so successful a) in promoting hatred of Trump and b) in getting voters to punish Trump by voting for Democrats in the November 6, 2018 election, Democrats will do the same thing for the April 2, 2019 election. Democrats will demonize, denigrate and condemn Republican candidates in the April 2, 2019 election as being White supremacists, Nazis, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse things who should be gotten rid of. Democrats will demand that Republican candidates demonize, denigrate, and condemn Trump as being a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things who should be gotten rid of.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20181119/will-voters-stay-energized-for-local-elections-
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Political organizers say they are trying to seize the momentum from the recent election to attract more people to run for local offices. “We hope the enthusiasm continues and we’ll see how many we can get out to get interested in these posts,” said Bob Peickert, chairman of the DuPage Democratic Party. “This is an opportunity to have some experience in local government, and they can get a better understanding of how government works. It is a form of minor leagues.” Schraufnagel said it’s “conceivable” the so-called blue wave that helped Democrats seize a number of seats at all levels of the government would continue for the local election of 2019. But it’s even more likely Republicans will use this opportunity to reinvigorate their ranks, he said. Both Gov.-elect J.B. Pritzker, a Democrat, and departing Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner have shared some of their war chests with township and county parties, which could help bolster future local government campaigns. “Using local elections as a farm system dates back to the late 1970s for Republicans,” Schraufnagel said. “This is a strategy that has been around for 30 or 40 years to groom them and train them.”)

 

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— When 40 years at the same job is not enough – Jonathan Haskell (DIERSEN: All my critics/opponents, all their operatives, and all their dupes promote age discrimination a) to get rid of those who are older than they are and/or b) to curry favor with those who promote age discrimination. To make room for its young Democrat minority employees and for its young Democrat female employees, the federal government discriminates against its employees who are Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran. The federal government wastes the careers of and gets rid of its employee who are Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who do not make GS-13 (currently $96,403) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $113,920) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $134,000) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $164,200) by age 40. Extremely few make the aforesaid promotions.)
https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/commentary/ct-perspec-job-retirement-forced-europe-law-hobbies-symphonies-operas-1119-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: I’m taking my forced retirement in seven months. Forced, because it’s the law in the European country where I work. On the first day of the month following your 65th birthday, you’re no longer an employee. Most people must look forward to that day when they can sleep in, wear cargo pants, plan vacations off-season — not taking orders from feckless bosses, dealing with problematic colleagues or fighting traffic home from work. . .Since President Ronald Reagan, there is no age discrimination at the workplace in the U.S., but that’s not the case here. So I’ll be out on June 1 to make room for one of the many deserving young persons.)

NORTHERN PUBLIC RADIO
— The Blue Wave That Inundated Illinois: What’s Next? – BOB EVANS (DIERSEN: The Illinois Republican Party (IRP) State Central Committee (SCC) will meet on Saturday, December 1, 2018. What will “Republican leaders” in Illinois who are really Democrat plants, Libertarian plants, Green plants, and RINOs demand? If they were open and honest about what they want, they would demand that the IRP and all its county, ward, and township organizations immediately condemn Trump and condemn Pence. They would demand that the IRP immediately strike the traditional family, right to life, immigration, and Second Amendment planks from its platform. They would demand that the IRP and all its county, ward, and township organizations immediately banish from the IRP a) those who support the aforesaid planks and b) those who are Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, rich, gun owners, German American, draft avoiders, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. What do the following have to say about the aforesaid: IRP Chairman (Tim Schneider), IRP National Committeeman (Richard Porter), IRP National Committeewoman (Demetra DeMonte), your representative on the IRP SCC (mine is Bob Grogan), the officers of your Republican county party organization (mine are Brian Krajewski, Marty Keller, Paul Hinds, Barbara Murphy, and Gwen Henry), and the officers of your Republican township/ward party organization (mine are Chris LeVan, John Monino, and Yadav Nathwani)?)
http://www.northernpublicradio.org/post/blue-wave-inundated-illinois-whats-next
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The midterms generated a blue wave that inundated Illinois. Pritzker romped. Democrats won every state-wide office and defended their extraordinary legislative majorities. Illinois is now one of the bluest of blue states. What happened, and what’s next? It happened for several reasons. First, Illinois is, and has been, trending Democratic. Demographic changes are profound and persistent. ‎In addition, there was a down ballot anti-Trump and anti-Rauner effect. Trump’s biting social and cultural message that perhaps saved Senate seats cost Republicans House seats such as Illinois 6 and 14. Moderate suburban voters abandoned Republicans. The anti-Rauner effect was cumulative but fatal down ballot. His obstreperous budget stance, combined with yielding to Democrats on abortion and sanctuary status, alienated Independents and Republicans, who never returned to the fold. He cooked his own goose. Now that Democrats virtually control Illinois there are no bucks to be passed.‎ Two choices loom. They can claim a mandate for bold new programs, but at great cost. Illinois does not have two nickels to rub together. Or they could proceed modestly, conserving scarce resources for the looming budgetary tidal wave. Democrats will signal modesty and prudence if they consider early on a bill to place Republicans on the Endangered Species List. I am Bob Evans, and that is my perspective.)

FED SMITH
— Can You Work Longer in a Position with Mandatory Retirement? – John Grobe (DIERSEN: Constructively, it is mandatory for federal employees who are Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran to retire as soon as they are eligible, unless they have made into the Senior Executive Service (currently $164,200/year). I became eligible for early retirement in 1993 when I was 45 years old.)
https://www.fedsmith.com/2018/11/18/can-work-longer-position-mandatory-retirement/

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Certain federal positions have mandatory retirement ages associated with them. Those that most of us are aware of are Law Enforcement Officers, Firefighters and Air Traffic Controllers, though there are a few other “special category” employees. Law Enforcement Officers and Firefighters are expected to be “young and vigorous” (yes, that’s what the law says), and Congress has determined that youth and vigor depart at the age of 57. Air Traffic Controllers have a mandatory retirement age of 56. So, unless there is an exception granted by the agency head, individuals in these positions must be off the rolls at the end of the month in which they reach their mandatory age. Exceptions are limited to just a few years.)

Has your representative on the IRP State Central Committee sought your input? What is on the agenda for the December 1, 2018 IRP SCC meeting? Where, and at what time, will the meeting be held? Will public comments be allowed? What will be discussed in the open part of the meeting and what will be discussed in executive session part of the meeting?)
https://www.dailyherald.com/article/20181116/news/311169983/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “The California Republican Party isn’t salvageable at this time,” concluded Kristin Olsen, a former Republican leader in the state Assembly. “The Grand Old Party is dead – partly because it has failed to separate itself from today’s toxic, national brand of Republican politics,” she wrote in a column on the website CALmatters. Shawn Steel, one of the state’s two Republican National Committee members, said her party has “reached the point of desperation.” “The party’s problems have been around longer and run much deeper than any one person. From money to grassroots organization, California Republicans are completely outmatched,” Steel wrote on the Washington Examiner website. A generation ago, the state was once a reliable win for the GOP in presidential elections. And in Orange County, largely white, conservative homeowners delivered winning margins for Republicans year after year. But a surge in immigrants transformed the state and its voting patterns. The number of Hispanics, blacks and Asians has outnumbered whites since 1998. And many of those new voters lean Democratic. The number of registered Republicans has been in a freefall for years – even independents outnumber them. In a sign of what was to come, Hillary Clinton carried Orange County in the 2016 presidential election, the first Democrat to do so since the Depression era. A stronger tack leftward has now dramatically arrived. . .Clearly, President Donald Trump was a factor. He lost California by over 4 million votes in 2016 and has remained unpopular, and many voters saw an opportunity to send a message to Washington. Walters and Rohrabacher, for example, were closely tied to the president, while Democratic candidates campaigned openly against Trump’s agenda. But demographic changes have also helped Democrats, and in key congressional races they fielded a group of fresh faces, not career politicians. Steel, the GOP committeeman, noted that Democrats raised more money and did a better job registering voters and using social media. The state GOP has debated for years whether the party needs to turn to the political center, or right. As far back as 2007, Republican Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger warned the party was “dying at the box office” and needed to claim issues usually associated with the Democratic agenda, including climate change and health care reform. The latest setbacks have set off a fresh round of Republican soul-searching. Travis Allen, a former GOP candidate for governor and ardent Trump supporter, said Thursday he was entering the race to be the state party leader. The party, he said, is at the “lowest point it’s been since the 1880s.”)

NEW REPUBLIC
— The Republicans Broke Congress. Democrats Can Fix It. A roadmap for House Democrats between now and the 2020 election – NORMAN J. ORNSTEIN (DIERSEN: If Gingrich had not gutted GAO in 1990s, I might still be a GAO employee. Gingrich had to know that the Democrats who ran GAO in the 1990s would use his tremendous budget cuts to get rid of GAO’s employees like me who were Republican, and especially those like me who were White, male, older, and/or non-veteran. My critics/opponents hint/imply/argue/shout a) that Gingrich knew full-well that because of his tremendous budget cuts, GAO forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old and b) that Gingrich had no problem with that. They stress that Gingrich, Hastert, Republican U.S. Senators from Illinois, and Republican U.S. Representatives from Illinois have not come to my defense.)
https://newrepublic.com/article/152127/republicans-broke-congress-democrats-can-fix-it
(FROM THE ARTICLE: For many decades, Congress has provided orientations for its new members. These used to be bipartisan, including a wide range of experts who taught newcomers the rules of how Congress works. After Newt Gingrich’s speakership in the 1990s, they became more partisan and generally less effective. The Democrats will need a much more robust orientation for members, new and otherwise, who have never served in the majority—and the same for staff. There should also be training about how to conduct investigations—there’s going to be a lot to investigate—how to do oversight, how to ask questions of witnesses, and how to use the alphabet soup of resources available to Congress, from CBO to GAO to CRS.)

https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/politics/ct-cnn-jim-acosta-white-house-ban-20181115-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: On Wednesday, Justice Department lawyer James Burnham argued that Acosta was guilty of “inappropriate grandstanding” and deserved to lose his access over “his refusal to comply with the general standards of a press conference.” Burnham also pointed out that CNN has dozens of other staffers with White House credentials, so excluding Acosta would not harm the network’s coverage. The network’s lawyer, Theodore Boutrous, contended that Acosta was being singled out for his body of work, not his alleged rudeness during a press conference. “The White House has made very clear that they don’t like the content of the reporting by CNN and Jim Acosta,” Boutrous said. “Rudeness really is a code word for ‘I don’t like you being an aggressive reporter.'” Prior to Wednesday’s hearing, the White House had maintained that it has “broad discretion” to regulate press access to the White House. A pre-hearing legal filing argued, “The President and his designees in the White House Press Office have exercised their discretion not to engage with him and, by extension, to no longer grant him on-demand access to the White House complex so that he can attempt to interact with the President or White House officials.” Trump himself, in an interview published Wednesday, was uncertain how the court fight would end, saying: “We’ll see how the court rules. Is it freedom of the press when somebody comes in and starts screaming questions and won’t sit down?” Trump told The Daily Caller that “guys like Acosta” were “bad for the country. … He’s just an average guy who’s a grandstander who’s got the guts to stand up and shout.” The White House’s explanations for why it seized Acosta’s credentials have shifted over the last week. Sanders initially explained the decision by accusing Acosta of making improper physical contact with the intern seeking to grab the microphone. But that rationale disappeared after witnesses backed Acosta’s account that he was just trying to keep the mic, and Sanders distributed a doctored video that made it appear Acosta was more aggressive than he actually was. On Tuesday, Sanders accused Acosta of being unprofessional by trying to dominate the questioning at the news conference. Both Sanders and Trump are named as defendants in the CNN suit, along with Chief of Staff John Kelly and Randolph Alles, director of the Secret Service.)

https://capitolfax.com/2018/11/14/mendoza-react/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: ILGOP…“Before the election last Tuesday, Susana Mendoza was disingenuous and mislead the public when she said she was focused on her race for Comptroller. A leaked campaign video revealed she was already planning on running for Mayor. Now Mendoza says she’s concerned about high taxes, but she spent a decade in Springfield working with Mike Madigan to raise taxes on hardworking, middle-class families. The last thing the City of Chicago needs is another self-serving politician like Suzana Mendoza.” – ILGOP Chairman Tim Schneider)

Will the IRP dump Uihlein and his money and seek/take money from those who promote LGBTQ activity, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, abolition of the Second Amendment, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and even worse things?)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Illinois Democrats’ takeover of every level of government has the Illinois Republican Party is taking stock on how to shift gears. The way Pat Brady sees it, the Illinois GOP needs an “autopsy” similar to what the national GOP underwent in 2012 when Mitt Romney lost to President Barack Obama. “We need to get back to the party of Reagan, a party that appeals to a broad spectrum,” he told POLITICO. That would mean having to pull back from the politics of Dick Uihlein, the business magnate who supported conservatives across the country during this past election season, including Alabama Republican U.S. Senate candidate Roy Moore—who was accused of sexually assaulting teens when he was in his 30s. Uihlein lives in Wisconsin but has been an influence on GOP politics in Illinois, funneling $8.5 million to the Liberty Principles PAC and to conservative gubernatorial candidate Jeanne Ives (who lost to Bruce Rauner in the primary). Brady and others say the Illinois GOP would do better to stop focusing on social issues like gay marriage, especially as more young people and women get involved in the voting process. GOP state Rep. Dave McSweeney also points to the missteps of Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner. “ We have a massive tax hike, out of control spending, a big unpaid backlog of bills—and we have fewer Republican General Assembly members,” he told POLITICO. “We’re worse off than when he came in.” McSweeney says Republicans need to follow Democrats’ political tactics: Run a grassroots GOTV campaign. “This wasn’t a policy victory,” he said, referring to J.B. Pritzker’s rout over Rauner. “Pritzker ran on a vague platform. What he and Democrats did was get out the vote.”)

https://www.aol.com/article/finance/2018/11/12/how-trumps-tax-cuts-hurt-the-gop-in-americas-wealthy-suburbs/23587443/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Proponents of the tax bill say the SALT cap, which tends to benefit the wealthier, will still be offset by a now-doubled standard deduction. Republican Peter Roskam, one of the key members of the tax-writing House Ways and Means Committee, heavily advertised how a larger standard deduction would simplify the tax filing to the size of a postcard. Roskam ended up losing his seat in Illinois’s 6th congressional district, where Democratic challenger Sean Casten took to Medium.com to attack Roskam and the Trump tax cuts. “Peter Roskam likes to hype his position on the Ways and Means committee to convince you he knows more about tax policy and you do,” Casten wrote. “It’s all a lie.” With Roskam gone, the Republican side of the tax-writing House Ways and Means Committee looks thin on members who helped drive the tax reform bill. Three of the six subcommittee members did not run for reelection.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: My friends and I turned 50 this year. There is a group of about 11 of us from college who get together once a year to relive our glory days and catch up on each other’s lives. Over the last couple of years, five out of the 11 have lost jobs. Losing a job when you’re in your late 40s to early 50s can be financially devastating. Those are the prime earning years and the time when a person can really start putting away for retirement and catch up if the nest egg wasn’t built large enough in their 20s and 30s. A layoff or termination after 25 years of building a career can really set a person back. The likelihood that such a person will find work at the same pay level becomes more remote. At the same time, greater financial obligations like educating kids, preparing for retirement, or caring for parents come to the forefront.)

November 11 Morning Edition

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD IN NAPERVILLE SUN: DIERSEN HEADLINE: Anti-Trumps crow about their success in a) promoting hatred against Trump in Naperville and b) getting voters in Naperville to punish Trump by voting for Democrats.
https://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/naperville-sun/news/ct-nvs-midterm-results-by-precinct-st-1111-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Despite a strong showing in Naperville in 2014 and 2016, unofficial DuPage numbers show Roskam took only half the Naperville precincts in 2018, helping propel Democrat Sean Casten to a victory. Results aren’t deemed official until all provisional ballots have been counted and validated. The deadline for that is Nov. 20. Hultgren’s previously red precinct map in Wheatland Township in Naperville went all blue, based on unofficial Will numbers, to give Democratic challenger Lauren Underwood of Naperville the win. Foster also gained momentum in the 11th Congressional race this year, picking up four DuPage Township precincts and a Wheatland precinct that in Naperville traditionally had been red for at least the last decade, unofficial results show. Foster performed much better in the Lisle and Naperville Township portions of the city, losing in three precincts Tuesday to his Republican challenger Nick Stella, and unofficial figures indicate the losses in those precincts were by 10 or fewer votes. Jim Ruhl, chairman of the Naperville Township Republican Organization, said what drove suburban voters to the polls was more related to personality than economics. “You cannot deny we have record job growth,” he said. And Ruhl expects voters will flip back in the next election cycle when the people they’ve elected fail to perform. “The very politics going on in Chicago are what will be coming. It will have a big impact on the DuPage County area,” Ruhl said. . .Several sections of the city remain primarily Republican. Spots where voters consistently vote Republican at the precinct level are located on the east side of Naperville between Chicago Avenue and Hobson Road and between South Washington Street and Plainfield-Naperville Road south of Oswego Road. Other pockets are located north of Book Road in the area near Naperville Presbyterian Church, in the south near Winding Creek Park, and in the area east of McDowell Grove Forest Preserve. . .Determining how a person will vote depends on multiple factors, including education, race, gender and socio-economic status, said Suzanne Chod, associate professor of political science and coordinator of gender and women’s studies at North Central College in Naperville. She said generally the more educated a person is the more likely he or she will vote for a Democrat. “Less educated people are more likely to vote Republican. Education is the biggest predictor of voting habits,” Chod said. People of color, women, and those who are on the higher end of the socio-economic scale, she said, also are inclined to vote Democratic. From a political science perspective, it’s no surprise Democratic candidates did well in Naperville. Chod said voters in suburban communities surrounding large cities tend to be wealthier and more educated. The fact that more people of color are moving into Naperville checks another box off the list. Kerr said Naperville’s demographics are changing as evidenced by the 800 people who attended a Naperville interfaith service last week in reaction to hate-motivated gun attack during a Jewish Shabbat service in Pittsburgh. The Jewish congregation was joined by the spiritual leaders of 11 faiths from the area, including Mormons, Hindus, Muslims and Catholics. “That’s the community we live in now,” Kerr said. “They’re concerned about people besides themselves.”)

MOTLEY FOOL
— 3 Ways to Increase Your Chances of Getting a Raise for 2019 Want a pay boost next year? Here’s how to score one. – Maurie Backman (DIERSEN: Federal employees cannot get significant pay increases by just asking for them. They must apply for promotions. My Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were beyond furious in 1986 when I successfully applied for a promotion to GS-13, currently $96,403/year. Because of that, they “pulled out all the stops” to stop me from ever getting a promotion to GS-14, currently $113,920/year. In 1987, they forced the GAO manager who had promoted me to GS-13 in 1986 to retire. He had hired me in 1980 and had gotten me assigned to audits of IRS in 1986. In 1989, they really “pulled out all the stops” to get rid of me. They threw me off audits of IRS, gave me unfair performance expectations, and gave me an unfair performance appraisal. In 1989, if Henry Hyde had not intervened for me, they might have succeeded in getting rid of me. Because it frustrated their tremendous efforts to get rid of me, they were beyond furious a) when in 1990, I successfully applied to work for the young Jewish female GS-15 in the office who was responsible for audits of federal financial institution regulators, b) when later in 1990, I became a Certified Fraud Examiner, c) when in 1994, I became a Certified Government Financial Manager, d) when in 1996, I became a Certified Financial Services Auditor, and e) when in 1997, I became a Forensic Accountant. They were especially beyond furious in 1997 when I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: In a memo to agency leaders, Weichert acknowledged that provisions making it easier to fire federal employees, setting time limits on collective bargaining negotiations, and restricting grievances and the use of official time were ruled unlawful by U.S. District Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson last summer. But she encouraged agencies to continue to pursue the spirit of those executive orders in their ongoing negotiations for new contracts with federal employee unions.)
