Walsh 41
Duckworth 50






Excellent news for the GOP. Numbers like these can hold the losses down to 1 district.

If I had to guess the final results of these races, this is about what I'd wager them to be: Walsh loses by a significant margin, Dold wins or loses by less than 1%.

Indeed, it is excellent news; a veteran who gave both her legs in defense of her country seems poised to serve her nation again, this time in the capacity of a Congresswoman.

Biggert is certainly likely to hold on if Dold does. Walsh would have held his old district, but alas, it was not to be.

This is a very great lesson in how to break a vicious gerrymander.

Im betting that Dold actually loses by a six to eight points.  He only barely beat a very weak opponent in a GOP wave year in a district more Republican.

Dold does have the advantage of incumbency though.

Incumbency doesnt count for much these days.  If it did, Democrats would have held a lot more seats in 2010.

Allegedly both sides are polling a close race. Who knows if that's true. It can't be far from IL-10, except this district is 3 pts to the right.
