1
00:00:09.040 --> 00:00:12.080
Two by four that went into the spokes of his wheels had to be the LaRouches.

2
00:00:12.200 --> 00:00:12.720
It's incredible.

3
00:00:12.940 --> 00:00:13.980
No question about it.

4
00:00:14.380 --> 00:00:19.000
And obviously, even though people thought it was a fluke in the primary, the LaRouches,

5
00:00:19.000 --> 00:00:23.600
as we sit here tonight, have done exceptionally well in the Secretary of State's race and

6
00:00:23.600 --> 00:00:28.340
have even siphoned off quite a number of votes for Lieutenant Governor candidate Mark Fairchild.

7
00:00:28.940 --> 00:00:33.460
Strangely enough, for some reason, heavy support in certain black awards.

8
00:00:34.620 --> 00:00:40.200
And he really did have to run a heroic race, which probably was doomed from the beginning.

9
00:00:40.840 --> 00:00:45.040
Well, the latest figures that we have, Joel, does show that James Spurgel, the solidarity

10
00:00:45.040 --> 00:00:46.480
candidate, is slightly ahead of him.

11
00:00:46.480 --> 00:00:51.380
And when you take a look at that vote of the LaRouches, and if you add it back to Stevenson's

12
00:00:51.380 --> 00:00:55.660
total, we're almost back to 1982 with a very, very close race between Stevenson and Spurgel.

13
00:00:55.660 --> 00:01:00.360
I think in some cases they actually did vote directly for them, particularly in Hart's

14
00:01:00.360 --> 00:01:01.300
case.

15
00:01:01.680 --> 00:01:07.100
But if you're suggesting that in some cases they got the support because of the complexity

16
00:01:07.100 --> 00:01:08.960
of having to cross back and forth.

17
00:01:08.980 --> 00:01:10.940
And Hart's 15 percent.

18
00:01:11.280 --> 00:01:14.360
Edgar just made his victory speech at the downtown Hyatt Hotel.

19
00:01:15.760 --> 00:01:21.460
Thousands of people around the state of Illinois have given their time and their resources

20
00:01:21.460 --> 00:01:22.840
to help Jim Edgar be rich.

21
00:01:22.980 --> 00:01:24.220
He was our 10-year governor.

22
00:01:25.180 --> 00:01:26.140
Six hours.

23
00:01:31.200 --> 00:01:32.160
Thank you.

24
00:01:34.080 --> 00:01:35.040
Thank you.

25
00:01:36.660 --> 00:01:41.020
There is so much on my mind tonight that I don't want to miss any of it.

26
00:01:41.400 --> 00:01:43.720
And I apologize in advance if I do.

27
00:01:43.900 --> 00:01:45.220
So let me give it a try.

28
00:01:50.980 --> 00:01:56.440
First, the people of this state are extraordinary.

29
00:01:58.060 --> 00:02:05.060
They're hardworking, believing, trusting, God-fearing people.

30
00:02:05.840 --> 00:02:11.060
Four times now they have placed their trust in me, and I shall never forget that.

31
00:02:33.040 --> 00:02:38.220
First to my opponent, Senator Stevenson, who campaigned diligently throughout the state

32
00:02:38.220 --> 00:02:42.180
of Illinois and ran a very tough and difficult race.

33
00:02:42.180 --> 00:02:45.740
He has my admiration for the grit that he showed.

34
00:02:57.680 --> 00:03:04.720
All around this state, people from the business world, people from labor, students, all of

35
00:03:04.720 --> 00:03:06.500
them shared a common dream.

36
00:03:55.500 --> 00:03:55.680
And I am proud to say that I am proud of the people of this state.

37
00:03:55.680 --> 00:03:55.680
