Unfortunately, it's not over until the fat lady sings as long as he remains ILDEM chair. It might not even be over after that given how much power he can wield through informal connections, but if he loses that role too, I'll wonder how much value those still have for him.

Madigan's exit letter kind has Trumpian aspects to it. I was the greatest, but the jackals and bottom feeders unfairly put an end to Camelot.  And like Trump, it appears that he has some legal problems going forward. Bye!

It seemed like Madigan might resign after bowing out of the race for Speaker, but it's still hard to believe. Tongue

Well this is great news for the people of Illinois, but we aren’t out of the clear just yet. Let’s hope his daughter isn’t coronated into any further leadership roles.

JB Pritzker is now the undisputed victor of the two. Astonishing how that happened.
