Illinois Newspaper Publicizes Fact that Almost Half of Illinois Legislative Races Have Only One Candidate on Ballot

The Alton Telegraph has this story, pointing out that almost half of Illinois legislative elections have only one candidate on the ballot. Thanks to Sam Cahnman for the link. This shows how absurd it was for Illinois Democrats to attack the U.S. District Court decision that cut the number of signatures for minor party and independent candidates to just 10% of the normal requirement, for 2020 only. Democrats tried to overturn the ruling on the basis that the ballots would be “flooded” with too many candidates.
