Polls and blistering campaign ads aside, six Republicans — not just two — are fighting for votes in what has become an expensive, dramatic and surprisingly fluid GOP primary contest to ultimately face Democratic Gov. J.B. Pritzker in November.
With the focus mostly on state Sen. Darren Bailey and Aurora Mayor Richard Irvin, the other four — venture capitalist Jesse Sullivan, former state Sen. Paul Schimpf, Hazel Crest attorney Max Solomon and businessman Gary Rabine — are working to get their messages to undecided voters in the final days ahead of the June 28 primary.
