Show Notes
Illinois gubernatorial race heats up as Democratic Governor JB Pritzker faces no opposition, while four Republicans vie for the nomination. Sheriff James Mendrick, Ted Dabrowski, Rick Heidner, and former state Senator Darren Bailey are in the running. Bailey, who ran against Pritzker in 2018, has chosen Aaron Del Mar as his running mate. Del Mar expresses optimism, highlighting strong internal polling and a unifying message that combines rural and Chicago appeal. Affordability is a key issue, with Pritzker advocating for higher minimum wages and Del Mar opposing income tax hikes, instead advocating for tax cuts. Early voting is open statewide as the primary approaches, and Republicans hope to find a strong challenger to challenge Pritzker.
