Lmao, so many with no opinion?

Anyway, the race appears to be Likely Democratic at this point. Pritzker should easily win a second term based on the state's partisan lean and as he has done a solid job.

When was the last time IL had a popular governor? Jim Edgar? The Chicago burbs have to be hardest to please constituency in the nation.

Yeah, Edgar was the last truly popular governor and the last good one. To some degree, I think Illinois has learned to expect s****y government, and it can be surprisingly swingy in midterms. I wouldn't be surprised if Republicans pick up several legislative seats in 2022. Maybe even a congressional seat on a good night.

Edgar was the last popular IL governor, yes, a Dole-Edgar or a Bush-Edgar ticket would have been the way to go, but Edgar has health problems....

Illinois' midterm behavior is very odd. The state has had a pretty consistent partisan lean over the last 20 years, always 11-14 points to the left of the nation, with the exception of 2008 with Obama, and it does not seem particularly elastic.

It's almost as if a switch flips with a lot of Chicagoland voters as soon as Democrats are in charge, irrespective of the nation environment. Like it's not persuasion, it feels like these voters actually follow the DEMOCRAT MIDTERM, MUST VOTE GOP meme, where their default is GOP and the Dems have to persuade them back.

Edgar had his buddy George Ryan sell license for bribes in the DMV office, Edgar will never be a candidate, just like Mayor Daley gave out licenses to garbage men for merit based. Difference was, a family died because George Ryan gave license for bribes.

The Rs have no one to run

Dole was probably toast anyway. Losing by 9 points was considered surprisingly good, I doubt anything could've made Clinton lose.
