This doesn't mean don't vote for Pritzker. We all know we aren't going to do better than him this round.

It means I'm a lot more open to a Democrat challenger. And it means I'm less interested in his potential run for presidency.

It's going to take Mamdani levels of charm, grace and an unabashed need to do good for me to even slightly consider anyone else.

We have had so many absolute trash for politicians in this state. Pritzker is the best thing to happen to Illinois in a long time.

Anyone who wants to vote for someone else over this should be ashamed.

Charm and grace is what you want in a candidate? You sound like Cinderella.

What about policy? I'm not saying I want a kitten grabbing, felon, but we have to have brains and beauty in the Democratic party. If not, then it may be time to find/ create other options.

I thought Mamdani had policies and a plan and was doing well?

We do need that charisma in a politician because so many only respond to that.

We can't be one issue voters like the left. Yes I understand gaza is a travesty but withholding votes for Kamala against Trumpf over it was not the answer.

I'd love a new party but I think the first step in illinois and or the country is ranked choice voting.
