Only because of Chicago & C(r)ook County. Virtually the rest of Illinois is red.

Not really. There's a bunch of tiny rural counties with less than 10k people in them that are. Most places are full of normal people. You forget that a lot of people don't vote, many other people don't understand what they're voting for. Most people wouldn't want anything to do with the Republican party if they understood their policies.
