Exclusive: Darren Bailey Within ‘Striking Distance’ as Illinois Governor’s Race Tightens — ‘Voters Ready for Change’
Joshua Klein 2 Oct 2022
“Voters are ready for change” after Illinois Governor J. B. Pritzker’s “catastrophic impact,” according to Republican nominee Darren Bailey, who is currently within “striking distance” of his Democratic opponent in the 2022 race for governor of Illinois.
In an exclusive statement to Breitbart News on Sunday, state senator and Republican gubernatorial candidate Darren Bailey highlighted the “failure” of Democrat Gov. J. B. Pritzker, calling him “an out-of-touch trust fund billionaire who has abandoned working families.”
According to Bailey, who was endorsed by former President Donald Trump, residents of the Prairie State have long been victims of the governor’s “terrible” policies.
“Illinoisans have felt the devastating consequences of Pritzker’s terrible policies, from their bank accounts to their safety,” Bailey said. “All of Illinois has felt the catastrophic impact of J.B.’s failure.”
“Voters are ready for change,” he added, “and we will deliver it when we fire Pritzker in November.”
The governor’s race has tightened in recent weeks, as many of the state’s voters become disappointed with Pritzker’s performance, seeing Bailey as a preferable alternative.
According to a fresh poll released Thursday by Fabrizio Lee, Bailey is within “striking distance” of Pritzker.

The poll shows Bailey trailing by merely 5 points (50% – 45%) in the close race, after Pritzker’s lead was twice that (+10) just one month ago, and 50 percent of voters disapprove of Pritzker’s role, 45 percent “strongly” disapproving, and only 31 percent who strongly approve of him.
Last month, Bailey, a third-generation farmer, told Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot to get off her “elitist high horse” and “remember who puts food on your plate,” after the Democrat mayor called to send Bailey “back to the farm.”

True, but the Dems have got to be pants crapping that a blue state Guv race is so close. Does not bode well for them nationwide.
