Governor Pritzker of Illinois makes sure Republicans can’t field candidates by “slating” — 16 Comments

  1. The State of Illinois, its rulers busily cutting down all the laws,

    imagining that the winds will never blow…

    that those they label devils will never turn round upon them.

  2. Of course, even without this new rule, the GOP wasn’t going to be taking over Illinois as the majority.

    Republicans win downstate. Democrats win Chicago and suburbs.

  3. when do you think that will be geoffrey, as the descendants of capones accountants stack the deck, and also fund the terrorists, now with Hamas as the latest thing, as st floyd was four years ago,

  4. With the rule change in mid-election, downstate Republicans may have trouble winning in many places even there. Talk about dirty political tricks!

    For Democrats, “democracy” means “Dems win.”

  5. The corrupt, degenerate, authoritarian, lunatic Democrat Party . . .

    Take away Cook County (with Chicago) and its adjacent counties, and Illinois is a Red State.

  6. Elections are ceasing to be the process by which people are selected for government office.

    Increasingly, the selection is made elsewhere, and the election rules are set up to deliver that outcome.

    Which is why we ought not to be distracted by fantasies of minorities voting for Trump. It simply does not matter what candidate voters potentially might prefer; it matters only who gets decide how the election procedures are managed.

  7. I should be president. I’d be a better y Id Be a better president but really does it matter?l id only have 4 years. Putin isn’t our enemy the FBI is. I expect a visit shortly

  8. The Pritzker family wealth has proven to be particularly vile and malevolent; Illinois tyrant, tyranny madness, university board/trustee lunacy (go commies, go). There is a reason oligarchs come to be hated.

  9. Of course, even without this new rule, the GOP wasn’t going to be taking over Illinois as the majority.

    If the Democrat Convention turns ugly like in 1968, who knows?

    Illinois elected a Republican governor that year.

    But the Republican Convention will be just up the road in Milwaukee, and protestors will probably turn that ugly too.

    I was going to say that maybe the state elected Pritzker because they thought he was too rich to be crooked, but then I saw this:

    Toilet scandal in the governor’s mansion?

    A contractor removed all the toilets in one of Pritzker’s Gold Coast mansions – and promptly reinstalled a single working toilet in Pritzker’s “hangout/meeting area” after the mansion was deemed uninhabitable. The county inspector’s evaluation cut Pritzker’s property tax bill by $331,000.

    An investigation in 2018 by the Cook County inspector general described the incident as a “scheme to defraud,” and Pritzker pledged to repay the money when it was exposed during his gubernatorial campaign. The Pritzkers came under federal investigation following the scandal, making Pritzker yet another Illinois governor whose actions have been called into question for corruption.

  10. The democratic/dictatorial duality. That said, all’s fair in lust and abortion. Throw another baby on the barbie, it’s over, right? I mean, left? The transition is a progressive process. One step forward, two steps backward.

  11. “Those who make peaceful revolution impossible, make violent revolution inevitable.” — JFK

  12. Article IV, section 4:

    “The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.”

    Might be the only way to challenge these shenanigans

  13. In my opinion, Democratic leaders are sons of Satan. Most Democrats are just plain stupid, do not know what the Constitution requires of them. Look at the history of Democrats, members of the KKK, even in our own time. Remember Sen. Byrd!
    South of Chicago, that disgusting city, much of Illinois is in the South.
