Kristen McQueary has the scoop (at least for me) on a development in Paul Vallas' case for declaratory judgment on his residency status in Illinois.
As you'll recall, Paul Vallas' brother and other campaign advisers have asked a Cook County judge to decide whether Vallas is a legal resident of Illinois or not. Yesterday, Tom Balanoff of SEIU (the biggest labor supporter of Governor Blagojevich and the driver of the Change To Win Coalition) asked to get involved to convince the judge not to consider Paul Vallas a resident of Illinois.
Presumably, Balanoff would try to introduce evidence that Vallas should be considered a Pennsylvania resident instead of an Illinois resident. He would almost certainly be a more aggressive litigant than Attorney General Lisa Madigan's office.
According to McQueary's article, the case was scheduled to be heard this Friday.
Anyone have a case number?

Why would you want an "aggressive" litigant, Dan? I thought you were all for ballot access. You've sold out, dude.
Read my post again. I didn't say I wanted an aggressive litigant. I mentioned the fact that Balanoff would be a more aggressive litigant. So take it easy with your insults. . . .dude.
