Gov. J.B. Pritzker has pursued some of the nation’s most progressive policies while in office and he now claims Illinois is the “most progressive state” in the country. He’s right. Just look at what he’s managed to get passed in his 6.5 years. No cash bail. Constitutionally-enshrined government union powers. The elimination of school choice. An “assault rifle” ban. Utility-bill-busting green energy goals. The “most LGBTQ+ friendly” education policies. The Midwest’s abortion capital.
Pritzker is so confident in his policies that he’s gunning even further left to try and win the Democratic primary for president. Just listen to his speeches at Equality Illinois and in New Hampshire, where he all but announced his candidacy.
But few seem to be biting. At least that’s what the latest Emerson College Polling data says. Among the wide list of potential presidential candidates for Democratic primary voters to choose from, Pritzker ranked near the bottom with only 2% support.
And despite all his efforts and “investment” in diversity, equity and inclusion, his support among black primary voters hit just 1%.

Blame Pritzker’s numbers on a lack of name recognition, but his near-zero support is not from a lack of trying. He hosted the DNC. He launched the 2028 presidential cycle with his New Hampshire speech. And he’s spent Think Big millions in other states like Ohio and Wisconsin – all in an attempt to garner national attention.

Pritzker is a useless sack of crap. The only reason, he does well in life is because he was born into money. If it weren’t for his family, he’d be living in a 1 room shack, wearing stained sweat pants, with Cheetos fingers and driving a rusted out Chevy Spark. I’m really surprised he actually go 2%, those must be the Illegals he’s paying to keep in IL to support his run for governor i the next election, between them, the bribes to the electors and the dead people voting, he should be a shoe in for a 3rd term. They don’t call him the toilet king for nothing.
