Humbug

Unless your name is Ebenezer Scrooge, it's that most wonderful time of the year. And your LakeCountyEye has compiled a helpful checklist:

	Holiday Gifts
	File an Objection to Your Opponent's Nominating Petition

Haha, the Lake County Election Board met this week to hear ballot objections. According to the Daily Herald:

A challenge to the nominating petitions of a Lake County Board candidate was upheld and another overruled Friday, and a candidate in a third county board race withdrew. The Lake County Election Commission completed two hearings Friday.
2 candidates gone after challenges in Lake County Board races

Sharpeyed operatives will recall that an Illinois statute created the Lake County Election Commission back in 2013. And a lawsuit filed by Lake County Board Chairman Aaron Lawlor killed the Lake County Election Commission soon after.

Note to Ops: Like Marley's ghost, the Lake County Election Commission is back from the dead.
