(FROM THE ARTICLE: One of the major Trump super PACs is Make America Great Again Inc., known as MAGA Inc. There is one major contributor from Chicago, Eloise Gerson, who in all donated $150,000. Gerson, who lists her occupation in FEC records as real estate, is a former chair of the Chicago Republican Party and is currently, according to the Cook County Republican Party website, the committeeperson of the 2nd Ward. She also once led the 42nd Ward GOP organization. She is allied with a group of staunch Trump backers in Illinois, including Darren Bailey. She donated to his congressional and gubernatorial campaigns. A visitor to Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort multiple times, Gerson is also running in Tuesday’s primary as a Trump delegate from the 5th Congressional District. Gerson was on the 2020 ballot as a Trump delegate, but in 2016, when Trump ran for his first term, she ran as a Marco Rubio delegate. . .Former President Donald Trump (R), $1,720,669 Top contributor locations: Chicago, $140,189, Springfield, $47,533, Naperville, $39,279,

— Mistakes come back to haunt state Rep. Adam Niemerg in heated downstate race. Niemerg’s Republican primary opponent, Jim Acklin, also faces nasty claims in the 102nd District race. – Rich Miller (COMMENT: If you run as a Republican, the more of the following that you are, the more negative that your opponents will go against you: conservative, White, male, older, non-poor, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or if your ancestors have been in America for a long time. Further, the more of the aforesaid that you are, the more that your “mistakes” will come back to haunt you.)
https://chicago.suntimes.com/columnists/2024/03/15/adam-niemerg-jim-acklin-102nd-illinois-house-republican-primary-race-election-rich-miller
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Adam Niemerg sure talks a lot, but what is he not telling you?” the ad’s announcer asked. “Well, there’s the DUI Niemerg got, more than twice the limit. And how he pleaded guilty to obscene conduct.” OK, let’s stop right there for a moment. Niemerg was busted in 2003 for DUI, speeding and possession/consumption of alcohol by a minor. He paid a fine and had to go to treatment. Then, on 4/20 (heh) of 2006, Niemerg was busted for obscene conduct. He pleaded guilty, paid a fine and was given 90 days supervision. Niemerg has not addressed the claims via his own advertising, even though “obscene conduct” can conjure up quite a large number of scenarios. Also, a lot of homeless people charged with peeing on trees end up in a heap of legal trouble, so it’s not that funny to them. The anti-Niemerg ad is also being pushed hard online, and as of last Friday afternoon, it had 232,000 YouTube views, which is more than twice the total population of a House district.)
