IL Attorney General

Attorney General – Lisa Madigan is the clear winner here. Lisa improved the state’s method of monitoring sex-offenders who were released, as well as designing legistlation requiring lifetime supervision of the most dangerous offenders. She’s also worked hard on environmental and crime issues. Stewart Umholtz doesn’t seem to have much differences from Lisa, so he doesn’t make hardly any case about why we should choose him instead of her. David Black, the Green Party candidate, doesn’t even have a webpage (according to several internet searches as well as the IL Green Party homepage) where you can find out what he stands for – in an era where every fourteen year old kid has a website, that makes me think he’s not even trying.
