* From an e-mail to supporters…
I’m writing today to share that after several conversations with JB Pritzker’s staff and Mr. Pritzker himself, I have decided to officially endorse JB in the race for governor of the state of Illinois. As many of you know, I’ve spent the last several years of my life fighting against an administration that seems hell-bent on destroying our government. Our government is needed by all of the citizens of our state but I have been especially vocal about the needs of our most vulnerable citizens.
I have worked alongside our veterans, our seniors, as well as the differently-abled and I have uplifted the voices of children. Within each of those populations and the Illinois citizenry at large, I have worked to make sure that racial and ethnic minorities as well as women have their voices heard.
Working to amplify the voices of those communities has been one of the most difficult tasks of my career but it is a task that I have been honored to be able to perform. Know that I am going to be with JB and Juliana as they continue to send the message to the current administration that it does not get to ignore or willfully hurt individuals, families, businesses and our great state.
I ran for Lt. Governor to echo the voices of the citizens who need their government the most and to stand with the working poor and middle class families trying to reach economic security. I’ve gone across the state listening to mothers trying to balance work and school while looking for affordable child care. I heard from fathers worried about being laid off work.
It is because of my personal commitment to Racial and Social justice, which are rooted in Economic Justice, that I am standing with JB Pritzker and Juliana Stratton as we move toward November. I know they will champion policies that lift everyone up and will help create a sound economy in our state. Moreover, we must work together to send the message that failed leadership will not be given a pass in our state. I hope that you will join me as I support JB and Juliana in their efforts to defeat Bruce Rauner.
Sincerely,
Litesa
Meanwhile, Dan Proft just dropped an f-bomb at the City Club and invited Pat Brady to take their argument outside.

Rauner would be routinely attacked if he and Ives were on the same page, because Ives is a monster who believes abhorrent things. If Rauner is going to be attacked whether he is unified with Ives or not, it isn’t a good line of attack.

Then Rauner shouldn’t ask for unity, say that unity exists, or hand over the co-chairmanship of the ILRaunerites to appease Ives followers.

Meh. It totally explains how Rauner lost 48% of the Republican electorate in March… abd polls at 26% approval.
lol…
But please, I won’t stop you, tell me more how Rauner is a victim of his unpopularity and pointing out the lack of unity is on those who point it out… lol

Wallace made a good showing as Biss’ running mate. Unfortunately, looks like she gave up her legislative seat to run for LG. Hopefully if J.B. wins, he’ll appoint Wallace to a meaningful role in state government.

It was an email to her supporters who deserved to hear more from her.
