of rain and snow is later into the evening friday clouds will increase high temperature 45 degrees on friday. from my baritone to maybe barons soprano? >> i don't know about the soprano i think i moved down to an alto about six years ago. but either way, we can try it. a lot of construction out there is depending on the weather. they're trying to squeeze in some of these spots before the weather moves in. but bound to the bishop ford and dixie highway we have the right lane blocked until 5:00. as to take a look at this project, sewer work impacting 26 street blocked off from east and two state street should be picked up by november 7th. they're cutting it close with the weather changing. some of these projects will impact your morning commute we will keep our eye on them for you. >>it looks like illinois is

getting a new governor, but pat quinn is not ready to give up his job just yet. republican bruce rauner is the declared winner in the governor's race. right now he has over 50- percent of the vote. quinn has 47-percent. libertarian chad grimm has three percent. governor quinn has not conceded the race. he says there are enough votes that still have to be counted, that could make a difference. but rauner sounds confident that the job is his. >> this is our time. this is the transformation. . we will not accept the status quo. we are going in a new direction. the voters have spoken. >> we are the government of the many. we do have to take on the government of the money. and we will never, never yield until all the boats are in. >>quinn is counting on early

voters and mail-in votes in the chicago area to make up the difference. there are also provisional ballots cast by newly registered voters. right now, quinn is down by more than 150-thousand votes. and believe it or not - people were still casting their votes about an hour ago. hundreds of people waited hours to vote due to numerous problems at polling sites across the city. tonya francisco is live at the chicago board of elections in the loop with that story. >> chaos is what they said. the last ballot was cast at 315 a n on the city's north side. the board of elections said if you are in line by 7:00, you have the right to vote. the reason it took so long had to do with the fact that there were not enough election judges. also issues with faulty equipment. and what is called the greece. vote in which allowing people to vote on

the same day. there were only five spite's for that. wells park was one of them. people waited in line for more than eight hours. at one point the mayor came by to shake hands and the aldermen even bought pizza for those still in line. earlier, the board of elections determined more than 2000 election judges either resigned or did not show up. after receiving a series of phone calls telling them they needed more training or they needed to vote a certain way to be a judge. voters we spoke to say it was chaos. >> they were understaffed. not enough people working. and there were issues with machines. we found many times that either there were open machines but the staff was not efficient enough to get them to the point, or the machines were having glitches.

>> the board of elections says it will launch an investigation into who exactly is behind those calls that disrupted the election. as for the mail in a provisional ballots, there are 45,000 of them still in suburban cook county that need to be counted. that will get underway at the board of elections at 830 this morning. back to you. >>there was no surprise in the race for senate. senator dick durbin won re- election, with 53-percent of the vote. republican jim oberweis had 43- percent. libertarian sharon hansen had just about four percent. >> this was a hard-fought campaign against some of the toughest political winds i've ever faced. people across illinois and america want more. the want a congress that produces, one that works with

the president to solve problems. >> it is very difficult to defeat incumbent u.s. senator. even more difficult to do it in a state that has the same predominant political philosophy as that incumbent. >> voters in the north suburban tenth congressional district returned republican bob dold to office after a two-year absence. dold defeated incumbent democrat brad schneider. >> it's better to win. i think from my perspective, so many of these people put their hearts and souls into the campaign and the hallmark of the district is thoughtful leadership. that has been an opportunity, one-term vs one and we want to go back and talk about trying to break the gridlock in washington. >> tonight we fell short of our goal but we did come close. we fought incredibly hard the whole way. i am proud and humbled by the campaign that we ran and i

will rest easy knowing that we did everything we could. >>and in the 11th district... democratic representative bill foster is headed back to congress. he defeated republican state representative darlene senger. foster... called his win a victory for the middle class. >> for labor and business and for good manufacturing jobs, which is probably the reason i got into politics. this is a victory for students and teachers and parents who believe in strong public schools and making college more affordable for all american families. >> this was a tough district to begin with. we moved the pendulum along way. i just want to say thank you for everything that you guys have done and let's keep that message going. >>in the comptroller's race, republican incumbent judy baar topinka wins another term. topinka declared victory over lieutenant governor sheila simon with 49 percent of the vote, topping simon's 46

percent. in the treasurer's race... a statistical dead heat. republican state representative tom cross and democratic state senator mike frerichs are deadlocked at 48 percent of the vote. both candidates pledged to clean up the treasurer's office. voters in illinois weighed in on several referendums -- including one to raise the minimum wage and to increase income taxes on millionaires. both referendums passed overwhelmingly. 63 percent of voters supported increasing the state's minimum wage from 8-25 and hour to ten dollars on january first. 61 percent voted yes - to add a 3-percent tax on incomes of more than one million dollars to increase funding for schools. the referendums are non-binding and do not affect the law in illinois but they could give democrats in springfield an idea for future changes. the voters of america chose a new direction for the u.s. senate, by sending at least seven new republicans to washington... and perhaps as

many as nine. that's enough to give the g-o-p control of both houses of congress for the first time in eight years. dissatisfaction with president obama's policies played a big part. >> tomorrow we go to work to fix congress that is out of touch and out of time. >> the only reason we are here tonight is because this message resonates so we have to change the direction of our country. >>another senate pickup for the republicans was north carolina's thom tillis. charles baker of massachusetts was one of four republicans to oust democrat *governors. larry hogan won in maryland. but the democrats got one pickup... in pennsylvania, where tom wolf defeated republican incumbent tom corbett. here's a little graphic to help explain the election returns to you *younger viewers... with legos. it starts with the republicans -- the red legos -- controlling 45 seats in the senate... and changes to reflect the *new senate, with at least *52 republicans. two *more red lego's could be added by the time alaska's

ballots, and louisiana's *runoff ballots, are all tallied. them but that only makes sense to capitol hill. when in doubt is like those. >> finally somebody put it in the way the college education person can figure it out. galagos. let's take a look at our day. good weather. we are expecting to see temperatures climbing to nearly 60. some sunshine today. it's 43 in gary. wheeling at 43 as well. light breeze. the priest will pick up into tonight. sycamore is only reading at 34. some areas have a cooler temperatures. we're in between systems at this hour. cloud cover to the south. more to the north. caught increase later today. it's 58 this afternoon with the chance of rain that lead to the day. and tonight we drop down. temperatures will fall through the '40's. more on that coming up. >> coming up, a suburban woman
