The Illinois Republican Party is poised for a remake soon when leaders will choose one of a trio of suburban and downstate attorneys to be the next state GOP chairman.
Lake County Republican Chairman Mark Shaw, former lieutenant governor candidate Don Tracy of Springfield, and Kendall County Chairman Scott Gryder were set to be interviewed by the Illinois Republican State Central Committee in Bolingbrook Saturday but that meeting has been postponed because of expected snowfall.
Tracy and Shaw are political veterans and perceived by some as the front-runners; others said Gryder may receive more votes than expected.
