Breaking: Adam Andrzejewski Surges to Within 2 Points in Latest Polling (Updated)

Illinois Gubernatorial Candidate and conservative Adam Andrzejewski rallied supporters in O’Fallon, Illinois this afternoon.
It was a standing room only crowd.

While campaigning in O’Fallon the Andrzejewski team announced that Adam had just received the endorsement of the largest Chicago Polish paper today. And…. It was announced that Adam had surged to within two points in an internal poll conducted by a conservative organization in Washington DC. Andrzejewski was 8 points down earlier in the week in the Illinois race.

It may have been the endorsement by Lech Walesa that helped Andrzejewski surge in the latest polling. And this is despite the fact that the mainstream Chicago news mostly ignored Walesa’s historic endorsement.

I’ll post more video from the rally today later today.

By the way: The mainstream media may not be tuned into Adam Andrzejewski but the internet sure is. And, today I had the great honor of introducing Adam at the rally.

More… The leader in the GOP race right now is Kirk Dillard who endorsed Obama.

UPDATE: Race 4 2008 has a great take on Andrzejewski’s surge.

Keyboard Militia has more on the rally today.

Wow!
Think of this irony:

In 2006 Senator Obama of Illinois goes to Kenya to campaign for self-professed communist Odinga, now in 2010 anti-communist Lech Walesa (!!) goes to Illinois to campaign for conservative Andrzejewski.

Can’t make up this stuff.

Great! We are voting for him Tuesday as well as our friends, this is wonderful news. The more he is out and about, the better he’s doing!

We planned on voting for him before Lech Walesa came here, and, we are happy he endorsed Adam, more voters are taking a serious look. If Lech sees something in the man, so should they.

Illinois needs to get past the crooks and cronies.

Wow…that’s a Scott Brown-like surge. Let’s hope for a similar outcome.

I don’t know what the polls say about the general election. But I have to believe that as many problems as Blago left the state, including near bankruptcy, together with the unending corruption, that whoever wins the Republican primary will be the frontrunner in the general election.

Chicago’s Channel Five News (WMAQ?) didn’t even mention Adrzejewski’s name when their idiot news “reporter” rattled off the list of GOP candidates.

The hate us because we threaten the status quo.

GO ADAM!!! http://www.adamforillinois.com

A Republican win in liberal Mass. and now a possible win in liberal Illinois (even if it’s just a primary) can only mean God has His hand in it , because of the prayers of His people!

Reaganite Republican – NOT ANDREW! That’s that other guy! This is ADAM….Make sure you pick ADAM on Tuesday!

Why is Dillard on top? I don’t get it!

I would like to see the internals on this. Polls tend to oversample Chicago.

I live in Central Illinois and I’ve never met a non political junky who has heard of this person.

Kathy from Kansas commented:

This story is EPIC.

In Poland’s time of need, our own fearless leader stood in solidarity with Solidarity, and helped save the Polish people gain freedom from their Communist oppressors.

Now, as we Americans are losing our freedoms to our own communist bullies, here comes Poland’s brave leader to try to help save US!

History is coming full circle, and let us hope that this episode has as happy an ending as the episode 20 years ago….

And, Jim, you got to introduce Adam? Terrific! You go, guy!

Now if we can just get rid of Kevin Jennings…. Hang in there, fearless leader!

uhyeah,

I believe the same can be said about brady in Chicago! Adam not spending time in Bloomington and Champaign is a smart move, you all worship Brady. I am from out side Mattoon and Adam has been to mattoon 3-4 time and to effingham the same, come to think about it i think he was in Decatur 3-4 times.

Can you bus “voters” from the west side of the river just like they normally bus the “voters” from the east side of the river for every other election?

I’ll drive as far as from Kansas to get on the bus.

Frank commented:

When I retired I left Illinois because after 60 years I was tired of the corruption and greed that oozes from Cook County and Springfield. I would really like to see a true fiscal conservative capture Obama the Commie’s seat. Go Adam, be another Scott heard around the world.
