Summary
Early voting has begun in Illinois. Bill Bloom, Rock Island County Republican Party Chair, says committee members and volunteers are already hard at work. Doug House, Chair of the county's Democratic Party, says social media is a big part of the group's primary push.
Illinois republicans will send 69 delegates to the GOP convention this summer, while 182 democratic delegates will attend their party's convention.
