Chip in today to elect Dem govs across the country >>
Democratic governors are leading the fight against Donald Trump and his administration – and they need your help. Trump and his allies have hundreds of millions of dollars to attack our candidates, and we have to make sure we’ve got the resources to fight back. With 36 races on the map this November, 80% of Americans will cast their vote for their next governor. We need to invest NOW to expand our map, win in battleground states, protect our blue firewall of Dem govs, and flip critical states from red to blue. Can Dem govs count on you to chip in right now?

DGA Statement on Illinois GOP Primary Results
DGA Executive Director Meghan Meehan-Draper released the following statement in response to Darren Bailey becoming the Republican nominee for governor in Illinois:
“Illinoisans already rejected Darren Bailey and his extreme agenda once before, and the only thing different about this year is that he brings even more baggage to the race. Bailey already supported banning abortion without exception for rape and incest, had downplayed the Holocaust, and perpetuated dangerous conspiracy theories that the 2020 election was stolen. Now, he can add to his laundry list of fringe positions that he is all in on Trump’s cost-hiking tariffs, supports bringing the chaos and dysfunction of DOGE to Illinois, thinks the National Guard should be deployed on Illinois streets, and has called for his political opponents to be jailed. Bailey was too extreme then, he’s too extreme now, and Illinoisans will reject him yet again in November.”
