Clinton: 49%
Giuliani: 39%

Clinton: 49%
Thompson: 40%

Obama: 56%
Giuliani: 33%

Obama: 55%
Thompson: 34%

By a 61% to 14% margin, Illinois voters believe Obama would do a better job than Clinton of representing their state’s interests.

Obama is viewed favorably by 66% of Illinois voters, far more than the other candidates. Clinton earns favorably reviews from 54%, Thompson from 53% and Giuliani from 52%.

This is fairly obvious anyways (as Illinois is one of the most Democratic states in the union)

Not really. It's getting there though.

Anyway it is worth noting that Obama does way, way better than Clinton.

Also I must say that I find it kind of hard to believe that Thompson does better than Giuliani in Illinois.
