Holocaust Denier and National Socialist Party member Arthur Jones is running unopposed in a Republican Primary in Illinois.

...never realized how much the Blues Brothers would resonate with me in later life. =/

Democrats have controlled that district pretty firmly since the 1970's, so its not really surprising that the only guy who wants to run on the Republican ticket is a nutjob. It's like those socialists who run on Democrat ballots in hard red districts, just a stunt that ultimately doesn't matter. So yeah, meh.

Besides the fact it makes the Republicans look ridi-- No wait, never mind. Trump's got that one covered.

Well, thank you. I am at least somewhat reassured by these responses. I just...I still get very nervous whenever I hear about Nazis acting in any public capacity. Because they are Nazis.
