In Illinois---so far---three Republicans have announced their decisions to run for governor.
The first to enter the race was State Representative Baliey, the Trump-worshipping,home schooling anti-masker from a county which, until recently, was named by the Southern Poverty Law Center as home to a Klan-like white supremacy group.
Next, former State Senator Schimpf threw his hat in. Analysts are undecided whether he is more like Trump or former one term governor Bruce "Ruiner" Rauner, who recently made the national news for contributing $250K to Florida governor DeSantis just before most people in his gated community got their covid vaccine while "regular" 65 year olds went without.
And, now, admitted Trump wannabe political neophyte Rabine hopes to be "70%-80% as good for Illinois" as Trump was for America. Country club owner Rabine crows that Trump did more to reduce unemployment than any president in his lifetime.
This is the GOP in Illinois. No responsible person would entrust their goldfish to any of these guys, let alone their state.
Illinois Democrats: call, canvass, write LTEs, donate cash if you can, Get Out The Vote.
Let's re-elect our Governor Pritzker.
