I voted straight Democratic, with the exception of my local U.S. representative, state senator, and state assembly member. I voted against them as revenge for their offices not hiring me when i applied/interviewed.

Democracy is a dish best served cold.

If any of those offices hired you in IL to forestall your political revenge they would be guilty of a federal offense.

Well in addition to not hiring me, my state assembly member I've met in person multiple times when I did campaign work, and I've had a few conversations with him. He's... not that bright. He's only a 29 year old surfer and he's the son of the previous officeholder. His uncle (a State Senator) got arrested a few months ago.

With all the family connections among officeholders in your district you could be living in IL. Tongue

I think it's because we have term limits for local members, so political offices get passed around like inheritance.
