What you do not understand is that national elections do not reflect city politics. Genreally speaking small towns in Illinois tend to be far more conservative than Chicago - which gets far more attention than any other area of Illinois because of its 8+ million metro population.
If you do not want to live in a military town, you might like Belleville. It is a neat old Geman town with a lot of history and itis the St.Clair county seat. I lived there years ago and loved every minute of it. Depending what map you look at, Belleveille is 12-15 miles from the base.
