In many states, primary elections are taking place this Tuesday, March 21. Voting in the primaries is at least as important as voting in the general elections, because they determine which candidate will have the party's nomination in November.
I will just briefly list which candidates I'm supporting on the Democratic primary ticket in contested elections and provide links to their websites and endorsements.
Governor, Illinois:
Rod Blagojevich (official website) (Blagojevich talks gun control in visits to churches) (Top Federal Officials join Rod Blagojevich) (Pioneer Press endorsement) (State education board bans junk food in elementary schools) (Nurse's hold out hope for governor's plan) (Area schools' finances look on the mend)
President, Cook County Board:
Forrest Claypool (official website) (Voter's task is to focus on what's at stake) (Another loopy Stroger add) (Commissioner takes on the powerful--Again) (Chicago Tribune Endorsement)
Representative, 10th District to the United States Congress:
