Exclusive: Darren Bailey Within ‘Striking Distance’ as Illinois Governor’s Race Tightens — ‘Voters Ready for Change’
Breitbart ^ | 10/02/2022 | Joshua Klein

Posted on 10/02/2022 9:40:59 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

“Voters are ready for change” after Illinois Governor J. B. Pritzker’s “catastrophic impact,” according to Republican nominee Darren Bailey, who is currently within “striking distance” of his Democratic opponent in the 2022 race for governor of Illinois.

In an exclusive statement to Breitbart News on Sunday, state senator and Republican gubernatorial candidate Darren Bailey highlighted the “failure” of Democrat Gov. J. B. Pritzker, calling him “an out-of-touch trust fund billionaire who has abandoned working families.”

Of course I’d like to see that fat pig governor lose, but the last time there was a Republican Gov. of IL, he couldn’t accomplish anything because the legislature is completely controlled by chicago Democrats. He was a lame duck from the moment he took office. In fact, he even followed the law to a T and delivered truckloads of signatures to springfield as required by law to get a referendum on the ballot to institute term limits, and some rogue chicago dem judge threw it out anyway and said it couldn’t be on the ballot.

Looks like big old J B Porkchop has started buying votes, sending out income tax and property tax rebates.

There seems to be a swing back to liberty in the polls which I think will only become greater as we get to November.

Lord, let the cheaters hands become frozen by your justice.

You know the Left always whine about Wyoming having 2 red Senators and complain about the Electoral College, but they never talk about urban crapholes like Cook County controlling the rest of the state. If you remove Cook and maybe Lake Counties from IL, that state would be as red as Alabama.

No race is close when ‘rats are free to cheat to their hearts’ content.

Actually, if we could magically move all Section 8 housing to physical locations controlled by dems, you would get the same results.

Sadly, I believe that’s the case in most, if not all states.

The population centers and their values (or lack thereof) hold the political power and they’re the ones that establish laws and regulations that, more often than not, are abhorrent to those that live outside the urban areas.

No question about it, Pritzker is owned by the Chicago mob.

With high inflation, rampant crime, a record number of illegals, and the world on the precipice of WWIII, why aren't the Republicans comfortably ahead in these races?

Cook County will generate as many votes as needed to maintain communist control of Illinois.

I'm sorry, I live in this shithole state HELLINOIS and I'd love to see JB Prickster go. Really, I would.

Unfortunately, it's HELLINOIS, the bulk of the population lives in/around the SHITCAGOLAND area and the nearby suburbs and they vote BLUE.

I hate to say it, anyone who thinks Darren Bailey, who comes off as a complete rube to most people north of I-80 is really kidding themselves.

All the polls I've seen have Bailey topping out at 36% support across the state. If he gets anywhere near 40% it's going to be a miracle.

I don't personally know a single person that likes JB Prickster nor his handling of the CHINA VIRUS PANDEMIC. The problem is, there isn't a quality candidate to beat him. There wasn't in the entire Republican field going into the primaries.

Conservatives: GTFO of HELLINOIS. There is no better vote we can make, than with our feet and let these assholes that keep voting blue live with the consequences of their votes and WITHOUT our hard earned tax dollars.

Let them eat cake.

Damn' right, even if it means having 250% of the average vote turn out to vote for Prickster.

The fix is in for HELLINOIS.
