SPRINGFIELD -- It hasn't even been a week since Jesse Jackson Jr. resigned from office and the state is already gearing up for an election to find his replacement.

Experts say the democratic party needs to be careful about how many names they throw into the hat because it could overwhelm voters, and could help the republicans win.

Rod Blagojevich's former attorney, Sam Adams Jr., has expressed interest in possibly running along with Jackson's wife.
