WATCH: Primary election petitions filed; redistricting consideration for veto session
(The Center Square) – In today’s edition of Illinois in Focus Daily, The Center Square Editor Greg Bishop highlights some of the candidates that filed for ballot access for the March Democrat and Republican primary elections, including Darren Bailey Lt. Governor candidate Aaron Del Mar sharing the status of the Bailey family following last week’s tragic loss of members of the Bailey family.
Bishop also previews what could come from the start of fall veto session beginning Tuesday. Legislators could tackle energy legislation, increased taxes for the mass transit fiscal cliff and the possibility of redistricting Illinois congressional maps ahead of the 2026 election.
