Pritzker, Duckworth see leads shrink in Illinois: poll
The Hill ^ | 10/26/2022 | CAROLINE VAKIL

Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D) and Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-Ill.) have seen their leads shrink in Illinois, though both are still expected to prevail in their respective races, according to a new poll.

An Emerson College Polling-WGN-TV-The Hill survey released on Wednesday showed 50 percent of very likely voters voting for Pritzker, compared to 41 percent for Republican Darren Bailey. The same poll had Pritzker in a much wider lead ahead of Bailey last month at 51 percent and 36 percent, respectively.

Yes - they’ll just be winning by 15 points rather than 20.

If the victory for the Comms is single digit in Illinois, that is like a win.

Duckworth +10 and Pritzker +9 in Emmerson means it is actually +6 and +5

It is, if nothing else, a confirmation that the national trends showing in other polls are accurate.

Maybe if the IL GOP actually ran some ads the numbers would be even closer.

Ugh Pritzker is such a scumbag. He is Nadler level pond scum. After his outrages Covid rules it amazes me he has a near lock

“They’ll both win easily.”

Unfortunately. But I’ll still vote. I always vote. Even if it’s a Hail Mary exercise.

Lurker, you know as well as I do that the IL GOP has pretty much gone the way of the dinosaurs. It will take finding some GOP DNA in amber to resurrect it.

Pritzker and Stacey Abrams would be the perfect match. They could rent a warehouse for their honeymoon.

Interesting pair, Fred Flintstone and a water buffalo.

REpublicans can win statewide elections in IL, and in fact regularly elected republicans until RINO George Ryan destroyed the IL Republican party by letting murderers out of death row and blatant corruption. ALthough a RINO, Mark Kirk was recently elected Senator, and IL had a Repub. gov. before Pigster. The problem is the state leg. is completely dominated by chicago Dems. But Repubs can win state-wide races. I think this race is closer than believed.

You could run Hitler and enough Cook County votes for “whoever got duh D” would let him win. Even dead.

I don’t recall seeing a poll of “very likely voters” before.

They are running them in Northern Illinois, but I don’t know how much good they’ll do.
I’ll be going to the polling place on Election Day. Wild horses won’t keep me away.

The Illinois Uni-Party RINO’s known as “The Combine” refuse to Help Bailey or Kathy Salvi for Senate

The Combine would rather take the loss to keep picking up the Democrat crumbs in Springfield

Aw, you should have put in a spoiler alert.

I knew you had a friend working for the Soros vote tabulation company but did you have to tell us the result in advance?

Well, he was elected to the US Senate in 2010. I don’t call that “recent.” In any event, he was a horrible senator, and was the Senate’s version of the House’s Adam Kinzinger. When Kirk ran for re-election in 2016 I voted for my dog as a write-in. He had ZERO chance of winning re-election in 2016, he was so despised here.
