The Illinois State Board of Elections rejected Wednesday a request to reconsider or lower more than $100,000 in fines levied against a political action committee that helped expand the Democratic Party’s majority on the Illinois Supreme Court. The board’s unanimous bipartisan vote followed a request by All for Justice, an independent expenditure PAC backed by Illinois Senate President Don Harmon, after it was fined $108,500 by the board last year for failing to timely file detailed expenditure reports in spending $7.3 million to help elect Elizabeth Rochford and Mary Kay O’Brien to the state’s...

California Senate candidates brawled Tuesday night over energy, the economy, corporate ties and almost anything else the state's residents care about. But who was right and who was wrong as they traded charges and facts? With two weeks to go before the state’s March 5 primary, candidates are battling for a shrinking slice of the electorate. An Emerson College Poll taken last week, after the Feb. 12 debate, found 17% of voters undecided, down significantly from last month. U.S. Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., was up to 28%, followed by Republican Steve Garvey, at 22%, U.S. Rep. Katie Porter, D-Cali...

COLUMBIA, S.C. — For most of the campaign, Nikki Haley’s children have stayed off the stump. Outside of the campaign kickoff where Haley’s family joined her at the end of her speech, the public role of her children in the campaign has been limited. At most Nalin Haley, a senior in college, writes weekly fundraising appeals to encourage supporters to contribute $5 at a time. Rena Haley Jackson, the presidential candidate’s daughter who is an Upstate pediatric nurse, has knocked on doors for the campaign and was often in the front row of debates to support her mother. The two children have sat f...

ST. LOUIS — A mid-Missourian has finally announced intentions to run for the 3rd District seat in the U.S. House, a job held now by the retiring Republican Blaine Luetkemeyer. Taylor Burks, former Boone County Clerk and congressional candidate in 2022, has tossed his hat into the Republican primary, political publication Missouri Scout reported Monday. The publication reported Monday that Burks has formed a federal campaign committee to seek the Republican nomination. The first two high-profile entries into the race — state Sen. Mary Elizabeth Coleman and former state Sen. Bob Onder —both hail...

FLINT TOWNSHIP — A top Biden campaign official maintained Monday that President Joe Biden was not ignoring the concerns of Michigan residents over the deaths of civilians in the Israel-Hamas war, but he doesn't expect the conflict is "going to end anytime soon." Biden campaign co-chair Mitch Landrieu said the ongoing war between Israel and the Hamas militant group is "troublesome and problematic." But no one's concerns are being dismissed and the Democratic president is doing the best he can to protect American interests, Landrieu said. "This conflict is going to be a long conflict," Landrieu ...

WATERFORD TOWNSHIP, Mich. — Michigan supporters of Republican Donald Trump say they're sticking with the former president despite a bevy of criminal charges and are growing in confidence that he can win the battleground state's November election. Ahead of the Feb. 27 presidential primary, Republicans gathered for county conventions across the state Thursday. Then, hundreds of people lined up outdoors in subfreezing temperatures on Saturday to get into an airport hangar to watch Trump speak at a rally in Waterford Township. There, he told the crowd he was "being indicted for you." In interviews...

He’s still a little goofy, and the doddering old man moments still make us all a little uncomfortable, but on the subject of Russia’s out-of-control aggression, President Joe Biden came off last week as a strong and capable leader. At a news conference addressing the death of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny, Biden took on all comers: the bully president in Moscow, the shameless Congress in Washington and the troublemaking candidate who wants to push him out of the White House. “Make no mistake — Putin is responsible for Navalny’s death,” Biden said Friday, mincing no words about his d...

DETROIT — U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib is endorsing the campaign urging Michigan Democrats to vote "uncommitted" in the Feb. 27 presidential primary in protest of President Joe Biden's policy in Gaza. In a video posted to social media Saturday, Tlaib said it's important to not just march against the "genocide" in Gaza but to form a voting bloc to affect change. "Something that is a bullhorn to say enough is enough. We don't want a country that supports wars and bombs and destruction. We want to support life. We want to stand up for every single life killed in Gaza," Tlaib said. "This is the way you...

DETROIT — Four years after Michigan saw a decided and sustained shift toward absentee voting by mail or drop box, election administrators and candidate campaigns are bracing for the effect of early in-person voting as a new way elections could be largely decided ahead of Election Day. Voters wishing to cast a ballot in the Feb. 27 presidential primary can begin visiting early voting stations on Saturday. Early, in-person voting runs for nine days through Sunday, Feb. 25, and allows a voter to obtain a ballot, fill it out on-site and feed it into a vote-counting tabulator just like if it were E...
