Kirk, Giannoulias win Illinois' Senate primaries for Obama's old seat
Illinois voters on Tuesday set up a November battle for the Senate seat previously held by President Obama, nominating Rep. Mark Kirk ® and state Treasurer Alexi Giannoulias (D) in the nation's first primary election of 2010. Kirk, a five-term congressman with a moderate record, cruised to victory over five rivals. Giannoulias -- at age 31 a relative political novice -- edged out former Chicago inspector general David Hoffman in a result that may have signaled fractures in the state Democratic Party heading into the general election.

Cool. Interesting fact, he also played basketball for Panionios in the 1998-1999 season.
I heard he often plays basketball with Obama for fun (that's all I really know about him). |
