Mom, son vie for Illinois town presidency

An Illinois woman says she and her adult son haven't said much to each other since they both began running for the presidency of their small community.

Wendy and Randall Casey live in the same house in Dixmoor but seem to be avoiding one another as they drum up votes in the upcoming village president election, Wendy Casey told WMAQ-TV, Chicago.

"We just interact, saying, 'Good morning,' and, 'Good evening,' when he comes in from work," she said.
