<p>All,</p>
<p>Attached is the August 2023 Political Division report.</p>
<p>I do believe the biggest point to get across from this report is
that the duopoly is trying to interfere in our Libertarian
primaries again. <br>
</p>
<p>They've essentially pretended that the 2022 Attorney General
result of 5.29% in Montgomery County never happened. I should be
preparing to collect 35 signatures beginning September 5 to run
for Circuit Clerk in the primary, not mulling a ballot access
lawsuit against a corrupt Republican-ruled county.<br>
</p>
<p>Now Republicans are refusing to post Libertarian primary numbers
in McHenry County. This is even as McHenry County Libertarians are
assembling their slate.<br>
</p>
<p>Democrats are playing the same dirty tactics in Peoria County as
well. <br>
</p>
<p>We don't know what games Democrats could be playing in Cook
County or what Republicans would be trying to play in DeWitt
County. We're still waiting on those figures to post.<br>
</p>
<p>To date, we only have Libertarian primary figures for McLean and
Tazewell counties.<br>
