CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— The 2020 presidential race hits Illinois: Delegate petition drives kick off
Oct. 5 Though the Democratic presidential campaigns are focusing on the early
state votes in Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina and Nevada in February, the
contenders can’t ignore Illinois because the March 17 presidential primary
comes early enough that it may make a difference. – Lynn Sweet

(FROM THE ARTICLE:
That’s the reason all the major presidential contenders must pay attention to
Illinois when it comes to organizing delegate slates for each of the 18
congressional districts in Illinois. The Democrats, unlike the Republicans,
insist on diverse slates, and have a lot of rules to make sure the slates are
balanced for, among other factors, gender, race, national origin, sexual
orientation and religion, with all this spelled out in the 47 pages of the
Democratic Party of Illinois delegate selection plan.)

potency tests Something about chocolate,
chemists say, seems to interfere with marijuana potency testing. A chocolate
labeled as 10 milligrams of THC could have far more and send someone to the
emergency room with hallucinations. – AP
