2026 Paul Nolley v. LaHood "forum" #debate posted on YouTube below. Watch it and see someone with a normal people's agenda vs. a guy who's mostly only agreeing with normal people when it's the opposite of what he did. #IL16 #IL-16 #PeoriaIL #LWV

I'm not near there, but I'll bet either of these would have signs: That #IL16 #IL-16 Nolley watch party on Thursday 10/08 7pm at 160 N. Mulford, #Rockford, IL 61107 should have a bunch. Boone Co. Dems meeting 2nd Thursday of month (so Thu. 10/15): www.boonecountydems.com/events.html (or e-mail them)
