Until just on Friday I never really paid attention to whether or not attendance at the Illinois State Fair is up or down. Most of the comments at CapFax noted that it helps to attract people to the state fair if this state's leadership doesn't spend a lot of time bad-mouthing Illinois. Good point.
Perhaps I should begin to make some plans for next year's state fair and document it for the audience here.
I also found this tweet from Rich Miller's twitter feed about the DuQoin State Fair. Who knew this state had two state fairs?
How many really appreciate that Illinois is truly a large state with a number of regions including the Chicago area. It's so large there are some people who are in the General Assembly - and mostly Republican sadly - who want to make Chicago the 51st state.
State Fair attendance said to be up 37 percent from last year https://t.co/ufIV1VWIYK— Rich Miller (@capitolfax) August 23, 2019

I'm told the #duquoinstatefair parade was drama-free.— Rich Miller (@capitolfax) August 24, 2019
