Due to an ASB inspired glitch, you are now governor of Illinois as long as you are not from Chicago or a politically corrupt area. You don't have to live in this state, be old enough, or even never stepped foot in this state. You could even be from Austrialla and still be governor. Over you're first days in office, you are informed that Blagojevich disappeared of the face of the earth on January 19, 2009 when you appeared on January 20. Barrack Obama fills you in on the situation of this state and everything you need to know to become governor. Everything else has pretty much stayed the same way in this world. What would you do?

I would stay in Springfield (instead of flying back and forth between Springfield and Chicago EVERY FREAKING DAY) unless my businness was needed elsewhere. I would use what money I could from the Illinois lottery to pay off our debt. I would appoint Gary Forby to the United States Senate (I sort of like that guy in appropriate ways), have Jerry Collestello replace him as Illinois senator, and have an election in Randolph County as to who should replace him as state representative (It could be David Holder or someone like that). I would also reopen the state historic sites and parks that are closed given more people jobs. I would also learn the history of bad governors and not do what they do. I would also do the reverse with good governors.

Blagojevich finds himself in an alternate world where he never existed and trys to work his way up from there. He doesn't realize that things were better without him... :eek:
