Pritzker is leading in McHenry County. It's the reddest collar county and hasn't voted for a Democrat for governor since 1852. He also appears on pace to be the first Democratic gubernatorial candidate to win Sangamon County since Otto Kerner in 1964.
Gov. JB Pritzker has been elected to a rare third term as Illinois governor, @AP projects. He’s the first Democrat ever to achieve the feat and the first governor of either party to do so since Republican Jim Thompson in 1982.

I wrote this for @thedispatch a few months ago, but the test begins after tomorrow. Much of our future depends on whether Democrats will put the work of strengthening democracy over the pursuit of power. Voters and others who care about our country should demand they choose well.

Amazing thread of local sports journalism that captures every score of the 88-84 IHSA football playoff game, plus the move to a different field with lights to finish the game.
Chicago Goode scores on the opening possession of the Class 6A playoff game against @qhsfootball. Knights lead 8-0 following a nearly four-minute drive.

Northwestern University head football coach David Braun is the most recent prominent sports figure to spotlight the failure of legalizing commercialized sports gambling across the country:
"I’m telling you what, I got 11-year-old and 9-year-old boys at home and I am terrified of how addictive gambling is... It’s predatory. It’s messed up what’s going on. You look at 18-25 year old young men out there right now and the predatory nature of this stuff—it’s really scary."

In much of the western hemisphere, today is recognized as Día de la Raza.
Could recognizing today’s holiday as E Pluribus Unum Day build a similar ideal in the U.S.?

This is grotesque behavior. Joe Biden was an American president. Xi is a communist dictator, and the head of a foreign state. Our internal divisions are not fair game in this context. teapaw.org/MargoMartin47/status/2…

Dolly Parton was one of the very few cultural icons shared by almost everyone. Dolly transcended everyday bickering and disagreements.
Everyone loved Dolly Parton. With her gone, the culture lost one of its few unifying figures.

Whenever you see a poll from an issue advocacy group, the most valuable information is to look at what kind of question-wording they resorted to in order to get the desired result.
