He recently has been implicated in several federal indictments against other people but hasn’t himself been charged with a crime. He maintains his innocence. State Rep. […]

Lawmaker calls for proportional allocation of Illinois’ electoral votes

SPRINGFIELD (The Center Square) – If Illinois lawmakers were ever given the chance to approve a change, they could join Maine and Nebraska in dividing up electoral college votes proportionally instead of it being a winner-takes-all state.

Tim Butler (R-Springfield) has for years filed a bill to allow for proportional allocation of those votes based on […]

SPRINGFIELD (The Center Square) – For the next five months, Illinois business owners and their employees are required to tell customers to wear a mask or they could face fines of up to $2,500.
