Rauner will probably end up in prison with the rest of the ex-Governors.

Like I told a coworker, we’re basically just voting who gets to be captain of the Titanic after it’s hit the iceberg.

What does it take to kick a county out of a state?

Serious question.

Wasn’t Rauner liberal and pro-abortion?

Rauner was one of the worst. Good riddance. Not upset about BushBot NeverTrumper Barbara Comstock losing in VA either.

It’s too bad Chicago and Cook County can’t be its own state so the rest of the state can live with normal representation. Same with NYC and the county it sits in.

Rauner never had a chance. Mike Madigan runs Illinois.

Illinois is the only state in the Union where their governors also make their license plates.

If I’m not mistaken, Illinois had the highest number of residents leaving the state of any of the states in the nation - hardly surprising, especially since anyone who wants to work in Chicago can easily commute from Wisconsin or Indiana.

Fat Boy will raise taxes in whatever fashion his handlers in the Chicago Machine wish, and that will largely target the productive high-earners, many of whom will then leave the state.

Bottom line - the only real question is the best bet for the over/under on the timing for the end game on the resulting economic death spiral.

Will the last person out of the state turn out the lights?

Oh, wait, the electricity will probably be shut down anyway . . .

Rauner did not do much to reverse the Illinois decline. Let the Dems have these spoils.

SecondCityCop put it best....

Illinois Doomed
Pritzker spent $160 million for a job that pays under $200K to run a state over $100 billion in the hole.

This is what happens when idiots vote.
