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...

I thought you loved Madigan-backed candidates though.

Not for Governor.

I see you’re either a troll or the opposite of the third type of person that OP was welcoming.

Rauner is an awful governor. He should have invested more of his money into the state instead of spending $70 million on ads. He seems completely out of touch with his state. His only attack vs Ives was "madigan madigan madigan". Whenever people criticize him, all he can say is "madigan!" and "I'm not in charge!". Total pansy. No wonder he has a 26% favorable rating according to PPP (the same PPP poll had Trump at 37% favorable - much higher than the average for Illinois).

He's really just a completely terrible governor. He's socially moderate, sure, but completely incompetent at governing. He's managed to piss off everyone.

I would probably vote for a third party if I was registered in Illinois. Lots of poor people must be looking at this primary in disgust -- the $150 million spent on this primary could have saved thousands of lives.

Rauner is a terrible Governor, Pritzker's policies are fine. The rational choice is JB Pritzker.

The issue is that JB looks like (and is) a sleazy, shady rich businessman with ties to Blago. Personality/image-wise, he gives me the willies.

If I lived a 2 miles to the east I would be an Illinois voter- but not in the governors election. Neither will be good governors.

Pritzker will probably beat Rauner pretty easily, and then turn out to be pretty unpopular. Maybe some decade Illinois will get a popular governor, lol.

I could actually see JellyBelly beating Ruiner only to get beaten in 2022. I don't know if Kinzinger will be the candidate to beat Pritzker, but I could still see JellyBelly being a one term Governor, especially if 2022 is a Republican year due to a Trump loss in 2020.

Nah. I think JB was the best of the big five canidates. It wasn't a great selection, though.

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?

I supported Kennedy and Ives, but literally anyone is better than Rauner. I think I can learn to love a member of the Pritzker dynasty.
