Quinn gets way more press than any other Illinois candidate, but it tends to be negative, in part because the state’s so screwed up. This, I think, greatly overshadows Brady’s candidacy, which combined with being from downstate means he’s still a relative unknown, despite (because of?) being the least worst campaigner. It’ll be fascinating to watch those numbers break as Brady inevitably gets more coverage.
Update: Rich Miller suggests that Scott Lee Cohen, who remains completely under the radar, could pull even more votes from Quinn. It’s also possible that the continuing Blago fiasco could continue to pull coverage away from the elections—which might actually benefit Brady in a no-news-is-good-news election season, which this one has definitely been.
