* From the governor’s daily schedule…

What: First Family hosts Trick-or-Treaters at the Governor’s Mansion
Where: Governor’s Mansion, 410 E. Jackson St., Springfield
Date: Saturday, October 27, 2018
Time: 4:00 p.m.
Note: No additional media availability

As Tina rightly points out, President Trump’s southern Illinois event begins at 4:30 tomorrow afternoon…


But the governor's public schedule shows he'll be hosting "Trick-or-Treaters at the Governor’s Mansion" at 4 p.m. in Springfield. The rally is at 4:30 p.m. in Murphysboro. https://t.co/jUsiwuVeGj

Governor Bruce Rauner will NOT be attending tomorrow’s Trump rally in Illinois. He’s hosting trick-or-treaters at the Governor’s Mansion instead.

*** UPDATE *** OK, well, maybe he will be?…


Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner, who has sought to avoid any involvement with President Trump for most of his first term, said Friday he expects to be in Murphysboro IL when the president makes a campaign visit Saturday. Rauner has sought to unify a core GOP base that backs Trump.

* Meanwhile, a dark money group associated with Local 150 of the Operating Engineers is running this ad opposing Republican AG candidate Erika Harold on “Chicagoland broadcast and cable markets [in] the last eight days of the election cycle.”

The ad was sent to me via someone’s mobile phone so the quality isn’t great

This was described as a “healthy six figure buy,” but so far the only independent expenditure has been for $150K.
