The absolute state of my state.
See sig, welcoming any democrats who voted for more common sense candidates such as Biss or Kennedy.
Also welcoming dems who would prefer a non corrupt republican over a corrupt pseudo democrat.
Also welcoming any dems who are not partisan hacks and take person over party.
If not any of those, go and climb aboard the JB train. Choo choo...
Rauner wants to break the back organized labor so that working class folks won’t have anyone left in their corner who isn’t beholden to the Rauners, Romneys, and Trumps of the world. As far as I know, Rauner has also refused to condemn the bigoted, misogynistic Quisling in the Oval Office, so he’s in no position to lecture anyone about integrity. And I’ll happily take a corrupt hack whose party is the lesser of two evils over an ever so slightly less corrupt hack whose party is waging class warfare against 99% of Americans and acting as a ventriloquist dummy for Putin, thank you very much. Your party has proven it simply cannot be trusted to govern in good faith at any level while Trump is in office, period. Also ROTL at the idea that 1) Pritzker is only a “pseudo-Democrat” and 2) your implication that Rauner is more liberal than Pritzker. Governor Pritzker can always be primaried out of office in four years, btw.
Redistricting will be up in 2021 and Rauner certainly does not need a say in that.
We don't need to turn the state from solid-blue to concrete-blue.
Until gerrymandering is found to be unconstitutional, and that day can’t come soon enough, that’s exactly what we need to do. Unconditional disarment by only one side is dumb, to put it bluntly. I’d rather every state have a fair map, but until then, things are what they are.
