were summoned to court for the reading of the jury note. when the ex-governor arrived he said, i missed you guys. the note from the jury asks for guidance. it reads in part, in a situation where jurors cannot unanimously agree on given counts what should the next logical step be? we've gone beyond reasonable attempts to reach verdicts. the judge sent a note back that said essentially, i need clarification whether you are unable to reach unanimous agreement on some or all of the counts. >> i think this jury, because they deliberated as long as they did, because they did it without rancor, without notes, i think they by and large came to agreement on most counts. we just don't know which way. >> the jury could easily have said, look, judge, there's no way in the world with any more time we can reach a verdict on any of these counts. and the judge would have felt the fahat n't they're not hopelesly deadlocked. >> reporter: rod blagojevich and his legal team did not comment on the substance of the jury note but they are hopeful. in what it could mean.
