Algonquin Township 19 Republican Precinct Committeeman Joe Stecker must have endorsed Kirk Dillard for governor because he got almost twice as many votes as his nearest competitor Andy McKenna.
Take a look at the results for governor in these 2 of 68 Algonquin Township precincts (listed in ballot order and excluding electronic, absentee and early votes);
- Dillard 35
- Brady 6
- Schillerstrom (who dropped out and endorsed Jim Ryan) 0
- Andrzejewski 8
- Proft 12
- Ryan 17
- McKenna 20
In my Algonquin Township Precinct 7 there were radically different results.
- Dillard 13
- Brady 5
- Schillerstrom 1
- Andrzejewski 7
- Proft 8
- Ryan 9
- McKenna 30

In Algonquin 19, Congressman Mark Kirk won 59 to 16 for Hughes to 10 for Lowery to 5 for Martin. I don’t have totals for Arrington and Thomas. Sorry.
In Algonquin 7, the totals were Kirk – 38, Hughes – 11, Thomas – 9, Lowery – 5, Martin – 4, Arrington – 2.
In any event, as virtually everyone predicted Kirk is victorious.
