Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. Being Treated for Bipolar Depression The Illinois Democrat has been absent from his Congressional duties since late June

And to be clear, I would never stigmatize mental illness as something that should keep people from living their best lives once they get treatment. But I don’t understand how anyone in #IL02 can be comfortable sending someone with JJJ’s history back to Congress

Nightmare scenario for the competitive Illinois U.S. House and Senate results next week: empty suit Juliana Stratton as the Senate nominee, corrupt Melissa Conyears-Ervin as #IL07 nominee, corporate sellout Melissa Bean as the #IL08 nominee, and mentally ill Jesse Jackson Jr. as the #IL02 nominee.

If campaigns that have money to do polls aren't publishing polls, one can infer the polls they are doing are not flattering to the campaign.

As others are noting, it seems like there should be more polling of IL-02, IL-07, IL-08, & IL-13.

Working Families Party PAC released an ad in #IL02 attacking Donna Miller, saying she “folded” and “voted to hand over our personal, private information to ICE,” while contrasting Robert Peters as a progressive fighter. Is internal campaign polling showing Donna Miller up?

Let's say progressives win in #IL02, #IL07, #IL08, & #IL09 (no, Biss isn't a progressive).

That's just OK.

Progressives are supposed to win Democratic primaries.

Crypto super PAC Fairshake reported, per FEC filings, spending $82,055 on mailers attacking IL State Sen. Robert Peters in #IL02 Democratic primary.

An AIPAC-aligned PAC supporting #IL02 congressional candidate Donna Miller called me at the worst possible time...right before the start of a NASCAR Cup Series race on a Sunday.

I'm voting for @robertpeters.bsky.social.

I lived in #IL02 and was underemployed so I was curious about which employers Congresswoman Kelly was talking about.

The next day I called the office and asked. The staffer got back to me and said that it was a general complaint of employers, not specific employers she was talking about.

Crypto super PAC wades into Illinois House primaries The seven-figure ad buys provide an early view into how the crypto industry will deploy a $190 million war chest to defeat candidates deemed hostile to its policy interests.

The pro-crypto super PAC, Fairshake, has almost $200 million at its disposal to buy elections in favor of politicians who'll work to make crypto billionaires richer.

The crypto industry is afraid of @robertpeters.bsky.social because he's committed to putting working people first. #IL02
