I caught his name being mentioned in today’s Chicago Tribune, albeit a small mention at the end of a blurb on the district race. The Green Party in this state is at a point of being treated as semi-equal in the local media. It’s something to tip my hat to, especially with the state of LP Illinois. No insult to LP Illinois, we just don’t have many libertarians in this state, and most are duped into the Republican Party.
