Because They Cheat Vol. 12

In Illinois there are all kinds of crazy things going on, like the military ballots that didn't get sent to our deployed military.  But, if you're worried that the thugs locked up in prison might not get their ballots, worry no more (h/t Say Anything):

Meanwhile, the Chicago Board of Elections hand-delivers ballots to inmates in Cook County Jail. The board doesn’t even wait for the inmates to apply — it brings the applications with the ballots! More than 2,600 inmates have cast ballots — strikingly similar to the 2,600 soldiers who will likely not receive a ballot for Tuesday’s election.

I'll bet their being told if they vote the "right" way they could get some time knocked off their sentences.
