OK, I don't know if this the right thread but anyway.

Can some local poster explain us why Ira Silverstein and Daniel Burke were denied renomination?
Was it corruption or some other sordid deal?

Silverstein faced credible allegations of sexual harassment and most of the establishment abandoned him as a result. Burke is a conservative Democrat elected to his seat when it was a mostly white district. It's now a mostly Mexican-American seat, and this was the year where a combination of shifting demographics, the rise of an anti-machine Mexican-American political leader (Chuy Garcia), and Burke's ties to Donald Trump proved too difficult to overcome.

I think a Governor Pritzker would sign a right to work bill that came to his desk.
Making him no different from a Governor Rauner.

There's absolutely no reason to believe this. Pritzker is a Democrat, and one that's particularly indebted to the unions for his political career.
