I live in the the 12th Congressional District of Illinois. We have three candidates on the ballot this year: incumbent Democratic candidate Bill Enyart, Republican candidate Mike Bost, and Green candidate Paula Bradshaw. If you live in the 12th Congressional District, I strongly urge you to cast your vote for Paula Bradshaw.
Vote Paula Bradshaw For Congress
The Spoiler Fallacy
Once every two years or so, someone inevitably complains about my support for "third party" candidates (Shawnee Green Party, Illinois Green Party, and Green Party of the United States).

Two Easy Choices For Southern Illinois
Voting isn't always easy. Elections in the U.S. are dominated by two big parties. Neither truly represents you. You may have voted for one out of fear of the other. Maybe you didn't vote at all. This November, though, there are two easy choices for Southern Illinois. There are two races where you can vote for a third-party candidate who's running against an "unopposed" candidate.
Vote for write-in candidates Catherine Talbott in Illinois District 117 and Tabitha Tripp in Illinois District 118.
