Both governor races, the AG, and Lipinski (fortunately, not in my district; I did momentarily think of voting for the young upstart in my district, but reconsidered and voted for the incumbent, who's going to win anyway).

I'm most interested in AG. I thought I would vote for Kwame, but after watching a debate I was so impressed with Sharon Fairley (and sadly, so unimpressed with him) that I made her my choice. (And she's a woman to boot.) But I think Kwame will win that too.

In essence, I think all the front runners will prevail in these races (with the exception of the Lipinski race), because the opposition vote will be too split.
