Topinka gives pep talk, Oberweis more reserved

Illinois State Treasurer Judy Baar Topinka just gave a speech, not a victory speech, really more a pep-talk. The Riverside Republican I thought did a good job, but the Fox 32 staff panned her.

It looks like Judy is going to win, but it's a bit early to know for sure.

Jim Oberweis gave a speech about 15 minutes later. He didn't sound too confident.

Joe Birkett, who I've had the pleasure of meeting, will be the Republican Candidate for Lieutenant Governor, he defeated State Senator Steve Rauschenberger.

Results are coming in slow tonight. The new voting machines being used in Cook County, where Chicago is, are getting the blame.
