With four Supreme Court justices in their 70s, some analysts are saying it's likely that the next elected president will appoint at least one justice, shifting the balance of the court. Elon Political Science Professor Dion Farganis agrees, and predicts that if President Obama is re-elected he would appoint a liberal justice and Governor Romney would do the opposite. "If Obama gets re-elected and a conservative justice retires like Scalia, that would then change the balance," Farganis said.
President Obama lived in Chicago, before becoming a Senator of Illinois, and in the upcoming election, Real Clear Politics calls Illinois a "solid state" for Obama. A recent Chicago Tribute poll showed Obama leads in the state with 55 percent of votes compared to Romney's 36 percent, with a margin or error of 3.7 percent. College voters in the area, like University of Illinois in Chicago sophomore Giuliana Molinaro, tend to agree. "I do think Obama is looking at the long term, and at the big picture, and what's best for all of America," Molinaro said. Chicago is home to more than 30 universities, with hundreds of thousands of students enrolled.
