Our crooked Governor decided to appoint Roland Burres to the IL Senate seat vacated by the president elect. Since the governor hasn't been convicted of anything (yet) and Mr. Burres has only been accused of bad judgement for accepting the appointment, he should have been able to take the oath of office with the other new senators today, but he was denied his seat.
I really think that the Senate leadership is making a mistake by trying to deny Mr. Burres his seat. Our country is faced with numerous issues at the moment and this issue is taking much needed attention away from those other, greater, concerns.
