SPRINGFIELD -- As election day gets closer, tensions are rising between candidates trying to score last minute votes.
Some are accusing Rep. Lou Lang (D-Skokie) of breaking the rules when it comes to campaigning. They say he was too close to polls asking for votes.
Illinois law says you can not try to sway any voters within 100 feet of the ballot box. Voters have mixed feelings on the statute. Election judges are responsible for enforcing the rule.
