Nieukirk goes national
Monday, Oct 30, 2006 Three cheers for the Associated Press! Most politicians like to play it safe. Not Tim Nieukirk. See all of Nieukirk’s “campaign ads” here. His MySpace page is here. And you can buy Get Nieuked gear here. Now that the AP has done a piece, maybe the Chicago TV people will finally show an interest. After all, Nieukirk’s campaign is solely on video. What could possibly be better for a light and fluffy TV feature?

- Common Sense in Illinois - Monday, Oct 30, 06 @ 3:08 pm:
…and with November sweeps starting Wednesday, a very timely offering to say the least…

How many millions of corruptly obtained money is Blagojevich going to spend making this guy look bad?
- Walking Wounded - Monday, Oct 30, 06 @ 4:51 pm:
Tim, Tim, Tim…..if you’d have only started this six months ago, I would have helped spread the word, walked parades with you and even tossed Ricky off of the Trans Am. Get started earlier next time, Tim, and pretty soon you can call yourself a goverment worker!

I also with his adds had started sooner. Maybe we could use a governor with a sense of humor.

CBS mentioned him today, but no video..

Where do we go to find the current list of all the write in candidates?
- The 'Broken Heart' of Rogers Park - Monday, Oct 30, 06 @ 6:59 pm:
You might as well call this the Capitol Fax candidate. If it wasn’t for your promotion of this fourth party candidate, Nukie wouldn’t even be a blib on the radar.
AP must not have alot to write about today.

So AP and CBS will talk of a write-in candidate for Governor, but not mention anti-war candidate Bill Scheurer’s donkephant named Melissa McBeaney.

HRH Weezer, Your county clerk election information web site should have everyone listed.
It’s 10:00 on election night. Your name is Rod. YOu’re in your suite at the Hyatt. Your party is in the main ballroom. You’re watching the numbers as they’re coming in really fast now. 30% of all precincts reporting.
22% ROD R. BLAGOJEVICH
22% JUDY BAAR TOPINKA
14% RICH WHITNEY
4% RANDALL C. “RANDY” STUFFLEBEAM
24.5% TIMOTHY ROSS NIEUKIRK
What do you do? What. Do. You. Do.

A list of the write-in candidates could not be found on any of the collar county websites.

I am actually thrilled to see that two young men of my generation are speaking out. Their antics may be unconvential…but that is what grabs attention…would any of you have noticed if they played it strait?? Go Tim and Casey…make us proud!!
- Marie - Tuesday, Oct 31, 06 @ 3:21 pm:
HRH Weezer, you’re right. Well, I didn’t mean to lead you on a bum steer. One would think the collar counties, with all that tax base and all those people, would have sharp and robust web sites. In fact, they’re all pretty crappy.
I did find something on the Will County in the form of a PDF document: Write in Candidates for Illinois and Will County (PDF).
Good luck.
