5. Same in my county, except for one county race. I also plan to 'cross over'.

Our County Clerk is retiring, and two of his deputy clerks are vying to replace him. Both are excellent, honest and equally-experienced, and they've both stated that they like each other and will have no problem working for the winner. All of the judicial candidates are Democrats, and without opposition.

Rauner scares the holy hell out of me. Brady scares the the holy hell out of me, but for different reasons. Rutherford is so done, he already has a fork stuck in him, so that leaves Dillard/Tracy as the least objectionable choice. God forbid that Pat Quinn should implode or otherwise meet with electoral disaster in November, I would at least like to have a GOP governor whose election doesn't immediately send me looking for a sword with which to commit sepuku.
