Illinois flag with state
bicentennial flag

Why couldn't the Republican Party in the Land of Lincoln find someone else to run? After Jones' petitions were verified as valid, why didn't the GOP find an acceptable write-in candidate?
Because the Illinois GOP sucks, that's way.
Oh, adding to the farce is this statement from the state Republican delegation:
"The Illinois Republican Congressional delegation strongly and unequivocally condemns the racist views and candidacy of Arthur Jones in the 3rd Congressional District. This is not who we are as a party or as a country and we urge civic-minded citizens to get involved in the political process to prevent non-party extremists like Jones from hijacking nominations."Wow. They oppose a Nazi. That's a bold step. Not.
