— How many ballots have not been counted yet in each of the 108 election authorities in Illinois? How many and what percent of the registered voters in your precinct voted? According to the DuPage County Election Division, in my DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 9, it was 413 or 79.12% of the 522 registered voters. If deadwood on the voter rolls was removed, the percentage would be higher. How many votes and what percent did the Republican candidates get in your precinct? See below for my precinct.

In a conversation with voters, Casten states, “If I win by less than ten, that says that 45% of the district is racist homophobes.” Listen to the audio here. Ives campaign spokeswoman, Kathleen Murphy: “Sean Casten doesn’t care to understand your disagreements with him. He just thinks you are a low-life if you don’t think like he does. “This isn’t how we come back together. It isn’t who the Sixth District is. But it is who Sean Casten is.

https://www.illinoisreview.com/illinoisreview/2020/10/top-down-white-penitence-is-shaking-up-and-roiling-the-american-workplace.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A white physician working in Raleigh, North Carolina, says he has participated in multiple diversity training exercises—including two in the last two years—without a fuss. But he was taken aback when his employer, Duke University Health System, said this summer it will roll out a comprehensive strategy to purge the last vestiges of racism from the workplace. The way it looks to him, Duke basically wants him to admit he’s a racist and repent. Like a growing number of organizations around the country responding to the death of George Floyd and the Black Lives Matter movement, Duke is adopting anti-racist advocacy as an organizational mission. That mission doesn’t mention time-honored workplace goals like color-blindness, meritocracy, or equal opportunity; instead, its target is the so-called complicity of America and its citizens in “structural racism,” “oppression,” and denialism.)
