Despite some internal party strife, Illinois Democrats are trying to show a united front heading into this year’s elections.
The party has announced a coordinated campaign in support of its statewide and congressional candidates. That will mean a cooperative effort to get out the vote and deploy other strategies to assist Democrats up and down the ticket. The coordinated campaign will be run by state Democratic Party chair Robin Kelly… even though Governor JB Pritzker reportedly favors different leadership for the party organization.
While it is not taking sides in contested primaries like the race for Secretary of State, the coordinated campaign expects to support the Democratic nominee in those races after the primary.
