Chip in today to elect Dem govs >>
Democratic governors are leading in the fight against Donald Trump. With our two historic victories in Virginia and New Jersey, grassroots momentum is on our side! But next year, nearly 80% of the country is voting for a governor – and with Republicans already investing to beat Dem govs, early support has never been so critical. Will you donate to elect more Democratic governors who will defend our rights and freedoms and stand up to Trump?
Radio Silent Richard Runs From Reporters
Irvin on Day 9 of Dodging Questions
It’s been nine days since he entered the Illinois GOP primary for governor, and Radio Silent Richard Irvin still refuses to answer questions, a new video shows.
Last night, Irvin was caught dodging reporters and eventually running away to avoid saying where he stands. Irvin vaguely said he’ll talk to the press “real soon” before taking off.
Despite not yet meeting with voters, holding a public event, or answering questions from the media since declaring his candidacy, Irvin released his first TV ad yesterday.
The DGA is tracking how long he’s been hiding at this new site.
Irvin’s been avoiding the tough questions that big donor Ken Griffin doesn’t want him to answer — like why he’s voted for Democrats, why he’s supported Gov. JB Pritzker, and whether he would reboot the unpopular policies of Bruce Rauner.
“Radio Silent Richard is hiding from reporters because he can’t answer for the unpopular platform Ken Griffin wants him to run on,” said DGA Senior Communications Advisor Christina Amestoy. “Illinoisans deserve answers — and Irvin won’t be able to hide his record of flip-flopping and out-of-touch policies much longer.”
