CAPITOL FAX
— DuPage GOP election judge shortage almost doubles in a week
https://capitolfax.com/2020/03/09/dupage-gop-election-judge-shortage-almost-doubles-in-a-week/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Will County early voting sites and Election Day polling places are being stocked with hand sanitizer and disinfectant wipes to protect election judges and voters as the number of reported coronavirus cases in the state continues to increase. […] DuPage County continues to face a critical shortage of Republican election judges. Last week officials said they were short 160 Republican election judges; that number has since grown to 300, said Adam Johnson, chief deputy county clerk. “We have lost additional judges,” Johnson said. Will County claims they aren’t having the same problems, but this is definitely something to watch as election day nears. Election judges are often retirees. And older people are in more danger if they catch this virus. I have never voted by mail, but this could be the first time for me. It’s not that I’m frightened to go out or anything, but it will take some stress off the system if more people vote absentee.)

— Cash-strapped Illinois GOP says it will spend what it needs to defeat Holocaust denier Arthur Jones in 3rd Congressional District primary – RICK PEARSON
https://www.chicagotribune.com/politics/ct-illinois-republicans-oppose-nazi-sympathizer-20200305-db5clsgi4zeqni7wsc5dhwk7ku-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: But the state GOP said it would tap into the more than $247,000 in its federal account to mount a campaign involving digital ads, mailers and robocalls to inform district voters about Jones. Top among the donors in the last quarter of 2019 was Marlene Ricketts, the matriarch of the family that owns the Chicago Cubs. She gave $10,000. Sean Morrison, a Cook County commissioner who chairs the county’s GOP, said unlike previous times when Jones sought office, he has been able to resist ballot challenges because the quality of signatures on his candidacy petitions have gotten better.)

Consequently, starting this year, my wife and I are forced to spend our retirement savings to pay for non-discretionary expenses.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: 3. Adopt an adaptive withdrawal (and spending) plan. Be flexible with your discretionary retirement spending, and be willing to reduce income when needed. By setting guardrails you know when to decrease the income in the years when the portfolio is in decline. Having an adaptive withdrawal strategy will allow for higher income in years when the portfolio is rising and help protect your principal during a decline.)

— Antonio Sabàto Jr: Supporting Trump got me blacklisted – JUDY KURTZ (DIERSEN: Who blacklists Trump-supporters in your neighborhood, in your precinct, in your municipal district, in your municipality, in your township, and in your county? By definition, blacklisters have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout. I should write a book about the blacklisters in my precinct, in Wheaton’s West District, in Wheaton, in Milton Township, and in DuPage County. I would focus on blacklisters who paint themselves as being religious, conservative, and/or Republican.)
https://thehill.com/blogs/in-the-know/in-the-know/485922-antonio-sabato-jr-backing-trump-got-me-blacklisted
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Antonio Sabàto Jr. says he’s working construction after being “blacklisted” by Hollywood for his support of President Trump. “All my representatives left me, from agents to managers to commercial agents. I literally had to move, find a new job to survive and take care of my kids,” the former Calvin Klein model said in an interview this week with Variety. “It’s been terrible. It’s mind-blowing. It’s a disgrace. It’s tough, because if you’re in that environment in Hollywood and you have something to say that they don’t like, they’re going to let you know,” Sabàto said. The 48-year-old former “Melrose Place” actor was one of a handful of entertainers to vocally support Trump’s 2016 White House bid, and spoke at that year’s Republican National Convention. “I was the first celebrity to come out and talk about the president, and he had my vote from day one,” Sabàto told the magazine. But after Trump won office, Sabàto says his job offers in the entertainment industry dried up, forcing him to pack up and move to Florida for construction work. “I go on the job at two in the morning, and I’m making sure that the job is controlled and supervised by me. I’m in the car all day, driving, going through all the sites. Five days a week, nonstop,” he explained. The one-time GOP House candidate — Sabàto lost a 2018 bid to unseat Rep. Julia Brownley (D-Calif.) — claims other pro-Trump performers are reluctant to publicly vocalize their support for the commander in chief. “I know a lot of actors who are lying about who they’re going to vote for because they don’t want the crap,” Sabàto said. “They won’t want to be talked about and fired from movie sets. This is serious.” “The reality is the power that makes movies happen in Hollywood — casting directors, producers, executive producers, directors — they’re all liberal,” said Sabàto, while also noting he’ll vote for Trump’s reelection in November. “They hate anyone or anything who supports this president.”)
