Almost every moment of the life of sports celebrity Bruce Jenner had been detailed, scrutinized and commented on since rumors began to surface that Jen- ner was reportedly considering matching outward appearance to inner self. Then, on Feb. 7, Jenner was involved in a car accident in Malibu, California, and the attention became frenzied. TMZ noted that, despite the incident, Jenner’s reality TV series was still going ahead as planned. TMZ had been reporting on the incident to the point of a pathological obsession—posting photos and videos of the wrecked cars involved while People magazine carried a blow-by-blow account of the accident declaring that Jenner was given a breathalyzer test.

  • BARACK OBAMA and the 2004 ILLINOIS SENATE RACE by John S. Jackson Visiting Professor an Occasional Pape
    THE MAKING OF A SENATOR: BARACK OBAMA AND THE 2004 ILLINOIS SENATE RACE By John S. Jackson Visiting Professor An Occasional Paper Of the Paul Simon Public Policy Institute Southern Illinois University Carbondale, Illinois August, 2006 The Making of a Senator: Barack Obama And the 2004 Illinois Senate Race by John S. Jackson Introduction The 2004 U.S. Senate race in Illinois may prove to be one of the most significant in American history. Perhaps not since the Senate election of 1858, when Stephen Douglas defeated Abraham Lincoln, has one Senate election had such an impact on the national leadership cadre. Although Lincoln lost the election, his speeches and debates with Douglas over slavery and the future of the Union ensured his place as a national leader of the young Republican Party and then as a leading contender for the Republican nomination in 1860 (Goodman, 2005). Although Barack Obama is one of one hundred Senators, and a freshman at that, he has quickly become a much sought after speaker, and his influence has spread far beyond the usual parameters for a first-term Senator. Obama is the first African-American male Senator to be elected since Edward Brooke of Massachusetts. He is the second African- American elected to the Senate from Illinois following former Senator Carol Moseley Braun, who was elected in 1992 and then defeated in 1998 (Kenney and Hartley, 2003, 203-209). With the exception of the post Civil War Reconstruction Era, Brooke, Braun, and now Obama are the only three popularly elected African-American Senators in American history.

  • Post-Election Report Takes a Comprehensive Look at the Voting Totals, Trends and Statistics During the March Primary Throughout Suburban Cook County
    Letter from David Orr Cook County Clerk Dear Friends: This March 20 Gubernatorial Primary generated great interest up and down the ballot, and we saw this result in record-breaking or near-record setting marks in the number of registered voters, voters who took part in the election, the percentage of voters who participated in Early Voting, and the overall turnout rate. Not only have we reached a record-high number of registered voters in suburban Cook County (1,549,688), the turnout for Early Voting was higher than any other Gubernatorial Primary and nearly as high as the 2016 Presidential Primary, and the number of voters who cast ballots in this election was more than had participated in a Gubernatorial Primary Election in the last 30 years. This 2018 Gubernatorial Primary Post-Election Report takes a comprehensive look at the voting totals, trends and statistics during the March primary throughout suburban Cook County. Below is a sample size of the standout primary numbers: • Voting before Election Day – by mail or during early voting and grace period voting – accounted for 29 percent of all ballots cast in this election. • Early Voting also set a new Gubernatorial Primary record with 109,811 ballots cast in-person before Election Day. That’s the highest total yet for a Gubernatorial Primary, and for Primary Elections, second only to the 2016 Presidential Primary (120,681). • Election Day Registration, offered for the first time in a Gubernatorial Primary, was popular with voters, especially younger ones. Voters between 17 and 22 years old made up 32 percent of the 4,278 who took advantage of Election Day Registration.

DePue: We are with Governor Edgar again, and we just got you to the position of legislative liaison for Governor Thompson. So I thought it was appropriate—and we’ve talked about Thompson quite a bit—to take a step back and have you just discuss, a little bit, his political career and how he ended up being governor; and then we’ll go into some of the specifics about the relationship that you had with Governor Thompson. Edgar: Jim Thompson had grown up in the Chicago area. I think he grew up in Oak Park— Oak Park? DePue: Oak Forest? Edgar: No, it is Oak Park, yeah.
