I just received an email from Michael Shannon, LP presidential candidate from Illinois, saying that Illinois is in crisis mode with 19,000 signatures to go in the next ten days. Mike said he is working on collecting signatures every evening and they can use any help they can get.

Dear All,
Below is a graph that Wes Benedict prepared that shows our progress on ballot access in Illinois. There are steps being taken presently to ramp up signature gathering efforts significantly that should still have us making the 40,000 signature goal, but it's going to be a tough 10 days.
If you, or anyone you know, can help in Illinois, it would be greatly appreciated at this point. more information on how to help can be found at https://lpillinois.org/petition/
Yours truly,
Nick

Nick,
Perhaps the LNC should be informed about our status in Illinois. Below is a chart I made that I think accurately represents things, based on data from the Illinois spreadsheet I was given access to yesterday. I realize we have taken action to speed things up, but it's a tough week and a half ahead of us to close the gap.
