For half of DU to decide.

About 25% will not vote for him because of that endorsement and the other 25% will vote for him because of that endorsement.

Personally, I'll vote for the Democratic Candidate come November even if it was Rahm Emmanual (God Forbid), but will vote for Pritzker on the 20th...

Neither of the other candidates have condescended to travel down to the 618 to campaign but JB has been here several times.

BTW, the "Screw Chicago" vibe is strong down here and that fuels a big chunk of the Trumpsters energy.

I'd sure like to see Democrats walking around down here in the corn now and again, instead of camping out in Chi-town and its suburbs.
Yes I know about population density and that Rural=Red Voter in the party HQ's thinking - But dammit show yourself out here at least.
We (Dems) can get votes if candidates would just show up and talk to us. Staying up north just fuels the "Dems don't care about regular folk" lies that the racist GOP keeps spreading out here...

Sorry, let me climb off this soapbox and settle down
