IceCream Man + Florida Man = Also Ran

Jim Oberweis is not like the Lake County GOP office holders that live in Florida. Perennial candidate Jim Oberweis is registered to vote in Florida. And since perennial candidates will candidate, perennially, Oberweis is running for Congress in Florida:
Former Illinois state Sen. Jim Oberweis — a Republican now living in Bonita Springs, Florida — was the first Republican to announce a candidacy for the congressional seat set to be vacated by Rep. Byron Donalds as he runs for governor of the Sunshine State.
Illinois man becomes Florida man
How will this affect Oberweis's fully paid-up standing as an honorary Lake County Republican? Not substantially. Operatives who wish to support Jim Oberweis in the primary can simply obtain their Florida absentee ballot. And cast their votes for him:

Note to Ops: If you are mailing you ballot from Illinois, don't forget to vote early. And often.
