Actually, my thoughts don't count because the Democrats always win anyway. What we need is more of Quinn, Madigan and company.  If you vote for the Republican, terrible things will happen to the state. We need 4 more, 8 more.16  more years and beyond.  Which candidate is better for harness racing?  Quinn.  The Dems have brought it to death's door, let them finish the job.  Slots for tracks?  Ha--that would an expansion of gambling.  What about the thousands of slots found in gas stations, bars, restaurants and convenience stores?  They don't count!!!  We need to expand welfare, bring more illegals to the state and raise taxes on all.  Especially those rich corporations and individuals making 6 figure and above incomes.  Why should you get to keep the money you earned when workers at McDonalds and Wal Mart are making $8 an hour.

I got a call from the Quinn campaign asking if I would be willing to walk door-to-door.
I told them I was not interested.
He asked if Quinn could count on my vote.
I told him no.
He asked why
I told him that Quinn has vetoed racetrack slots and it has cost IL millions and millions of dollars and horse racing industry from growing.
He tried to tell me that the horse racing industry "only affects a small group of people"
I went off on him and tried to explain that it affects more that the horsepeople....
There is no way Quinn gets my vote
