Take the quiz and them email the website to Alan Keyes: Illinois Quiz
http://www.kidport.com/RefLib/UsaGeography/Quiz/qIllinois.htm

I only got a 4 out of 10 which is probably still a better mark than Alan Keyes. So take the quiz and find out if you know basic information about the State of Illinois.

Now I don't see an email address for Alan Keyes Senate campaign run, but I did find this on his Senate Campaign Link: donations@keyesforsenate.com

So when you're done for a quiz, why not email a copy to Mr. Keyes so maybe he can learn a little bit about the state he'll run for US Senate.

1. I only missed one! I am the smart! S-M-R-T!
Of course, IL is my dad's home state, and I lived in IL for 5 years. :D

3. Did you email the quiz to Alan Keyes
We have to help him learn about his new state. And maybe find him a garage apartment somewhere that he can rent for 3 months while he runs this farce of a Senate Campaign

10. If that's true, maybe we won't lose anymore congressional seats.
Illinois has been in steady decline, populationwise, for several years now.

6. I only missed one! Since I live in this state, I should have gotten all.
I missed the one question about the origin of the name "Illinois"

12. I got all but the population
I grew up in Illinois, but haven't lived there in more than a decade, so populations change. The rest is history and geography.

15. 10 Out of 10
Of course, i live and grew up here. I'd have been ashamed to have done less.

This is going to be Keyes ultimate comeuppance. He's going to get annihilated in this election.

20. Plus, the fact that Alan Keyes is slightly to the right of Attila the Hun.
Keyes' ULTRA right-wing philosophy will not resonate in a state that is moderate/liberal Democratic.

16. YEAH, 10 for 10, but I guessed on two
I had no idea of the population and guessed one of the middle numbers and I also guessed about the origin of the state name.

19. 8/10
Not bad for a Hoosier who has only been to Chicago twice for a total of 5 days. Although some of them were partial guesses
