Illinois

* It really is everywhere. I know so many people with it…

I'm looking forward to tonight's debate. While I'm disappointed that I won't be able to participate in person due to ABC's COVID protocol, I'm excited to continue sharing our positive vision for Illinois' future via Zoom.

Dude, you have a contagious and potentially deadly or disabling disease. You’d really go except for the protocols? Unreal.

The more we hear about his actual vision, this test result may be the most positive thing about the guy. /s

How convenient.

“Due to ABC’s COVID protocol”

Those damn TV stations that don’t want to spread a virus during a pandemic.

How soon until he blames Madigan for the ABC protocols?

If you don’t take a deadly pandemic seriously, how are we supposed to trust your judgement on any important matter?

Well, yeah. He is pro-family. Everyone else can die. /s

So you would have shown up to spread the disease but for the protocol? So you have no concerns about contaminating vulnerable people? Got it.

Another clueless Illinois Republican being clueless. And he HAS the disease that caused all the problems.
Wow.

I’m pretty sure he’s not going anywhere in this primary, but he scares me because he is telegenic, booksmart, and has a certain kind of allure. terrifying guy.

Jesse Sullivan has a personality for infomercials not government. His “I have all the answers” doesn’t lend itself to compromise and collaboration.

A messianic complex does not bode well for his candidacy.

=A messianic complex does not bode well for his candidacy.=

Sadly this might play better in Washington than in state government. And I fear that this is nothing more than a trial run to introduce voters to Jesse Sullivan. I don’t think we’ve heard the last of him.

Finally, something positive has emerged from his campaign

Is there any way to stream this debate?

I know it late and probably not many people will see this, but following what Baily has shown over this long period, he should just attend in person /s
