A press release announcing the "Recall this Fall” petition drive to put a binding referendum on the November ballot notes that many cities in Illinois and across the country offer their voters an opportunity to recall poorly performing mayors; former Illinois governor Pat Quinn led a successful drive to allow voters to recall their governor. “Chicagoans should have the ability to do the same,” it says.
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.
