Guys! Please quit grouping all of us Illinois refugees seeking freedom in the same light. When my wife and I moved over here you gained two conservative votes. Visclosky has been the US rep here since the 80's, long before we got here. He will only leave by death or indictment. My neighbors are also refugees from Illinois and as far as I know, they are all conservatives.
IMO, Lake county will always be blue but thank God there are enough others to keep them in check.
