This year Illinois State Fair vendors have agreed to work despite the chance that they will have to wait to be paid due to state budget issues, event organizers said. "They understand we don't have a budget. Payments will be delayed," Illinois Department of Agriculture Director Philip Nelson said during a preview of the fair for the media on Thursday Aug. 6, 2015.
