The [Wednesday] Papers

By Steve Rhodes

What a night.

He was running unopposed, but still: more than 20,000 Illinois Republicans decided to vote yesterday for the former leader of the American Nazi Party, still an active Holocaust denier, rather than leave that race blank. https://t.co/sVSyRvN5mC

Again, a ridiculous poll from a discredited "pollster" https://t.co/bDY9It71wx
— Jeff (@jeff60618) March 20, 2018

The pollster is also a friend of Fioretti's, according to Ahern, who tweeted that nonetheless it squared with other numbers she was seeing and hearing. Preckwinkle won with at least 62 percent of the vote. Will there be any accountability? No. That's not how the media works.

"How do you feel?"

"Great!"

"How do you think it's going?"

"Really good!"

"So how do you feel?"

"Excited!"
