Illinois: How Did the Pro-Impeachment Candidates Do?ImpeachPac
lists all candidates who are pushing impeachment as part of their platform. There were three candidates from Illinois who qualified:
IL05: Johnny Haptonstall
IL08: Bill Scheurer
IL14: John LaeschHow did they do? Johnny Haptonstall ended up with
7.6% of the vote in his district. John Laesch won the Democratic primary; for his efforts he gets to face Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert.
Bill Sheurer? He's
not running on the Democratic ticket, but as an independent, spoiler candidate.
I've said it before and I'll say it again: We are very fortunate in our enemies!
