Conservative downstate framer Darren Bailey on Thursday kicked off another bid for Illinois governor with the same theme: Fire Illinois Governor JB Pritzker. “People just can’t afford to live and work here. Pritzker has caused all that, and I think we’re going to bring the cure,” Bailey said. WGN's video report here.
No chance in Hell will the greedy public sector allow him to win.

Why Bailey picked a former Hillary Clinton supporter in Aaron Del Mar is simply amazing.
Not only that, Del Mar was Gary Rabine’s running mate last time, so Bailey thinks he’s going to win with the running mate of the guy he defeated in the Primary last time around?

“framer” good one. He sure is not a farmer but a grifter sucking on the federal teat. speaking of grifters, I see wirepoints no longer has money and needs to do more doom grifting. LULZ

IL didn’t want him last time. IL needs a credible Republican candidate.
Look at Bailey’s running mate – he was the Chicago Dem campaign advisor for Hillary Clinton. Enough said. You don’t escape the “firm” and then turn on them.
Isn’t Illinois Fun?

Good for him, I guess. But he’s got no chance to win, even if the Dem’s made the Gerrymandering more fair. I hope the Republican party can find a viable candidate.
It does matter in that even if a Republican can win the governorship, he will be faced with a state assembly that is the result of gerrymandering. The gerrymandered state assembly effectively negates a Republican win statewide. Like Rauner. Heads I win, tails you lose.

How many votes does he think he’ll get in the six county area? Answer. If every voter outside the six counties voted for him, he’d still lose. Go back to your little niche farm and drink a dose of reality.

Pritzker’s campaign people must be laughing their heads off.
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
No chance in Hell will the greedy public sector allow him to win.

Dan Profit told me he was the key figure to advance conservative causes in Illinois. LOL
We do Ted Dabrowski, let’s get behind him and support, Darren Bailey is doing this for Pritzker’s well being.
Please don’t, let someone with a change to beat Pigster.
How much is PIGSTER going to donate this time for his election??? Wasn’t it in the range of 40-60 MILLION ?? Don’t let PIGSTER pick his opponent!!!
It was $26 to $36 million, depending on how you count it.
If JB truly spent in that range for Bailey, I can’t wait to see how much he ponies up for Ted!
/sarc
pin money for JB

Gerrymandering doesn’t matter for a state-wide office.
Good point!
