CHICAGO, IL — This week, Governor Pritzker energized Democrats from Rock Island to Dallas and called out the “bizarre clown show” that was the Republican National Convention. Despite Darren Bailey’s insistence that Donald Trump has nothing to do with his campaign, he too made the trip to Dallas, where he accepted a seat in the president’s special box. Aaron Del Mar also attended the convention after refusing to commit to keeping his hands off of Illinois’ abortion protections.
