Meanwhile, Downers Grove business owner Doug Truax, a veteran and West Point graduate, impressed the membership with his wide knowledge of health care earning 71.2 percent of the vote over State Sen. Jim Oberweis.
If Doug Truax continues to gain momentum, it can only mean good things for the ILGOP. Having Oberweis at the top of the ticket isn't going to be a strong help for the rest of the GOP Ticket in the General Election. Let's hope Truax has the money and the organization to close strong.
