Pretty much a contest of who HATES Trump more than any other Dem on the ticket.
If anyone sees a GOP candidate north of I-80 after today... feel free to point him/her out. Insane person wasting money.
Strictly for fun... from the Illinois Policy website:
Only 1 in 6 primary races offer voters choice
Only about 17% of the possible primary elections in Illinois are contested this year, illustrating the importance of giving voters more choices.
Illinois has 181 open state and federal seats this year, the vast majority of those in the state General Assembly. Of the 362 possible primaries, only 61 are contested, split evenly between Democrats and Republicans.
In 2024 nearly nine out of every 10 Republican and Democratic primaries for Illinois state and federal offices uncontested.
This year in the Illinois General Assembly, only 10.5% of primaries involve competing candidates...
Yes, that's the billionaire incumbent against a small-town farmer/politician. Sure, I can see that one going right down to the wire. (rolleyes emoticon)
Ya know that saying that ends with "...either a dead girl or a live boy"?? THAT'S about the only way I'd say Darren Bailey has a chance: and it would still be an outside chance at that.
