1. I skimmed the link...

It looks like this is a list of contributions to Presidential candidates. DuPage has already been carried by Democrats running for statewide office. Obama carried DuPage in '04. Lisa Madigan, Jesse White, and Dan Hynes all won in DuPage in '06.

A better indicator would be money going to candidates for DuPage County Board. So far this board is all Republican, and not coincidentally the Republicans have much more money than the Democrats, and many of the offices up this time around didn't even have a Democratic candidate in the primary. Fortunately, there's some heavy competition for the county party leadership this time around and we should hopefully see some changes after the party elections on the 5th.
