Super PAC: Illinois in Play for Trump but Gov. Rauner Trying to Stop Him

Contact: Amy Olson, 773-809-5106

CHICAGO, Sept. 27, 2016 /Standard Newswire/ -- The blue state of Illinois is now in play for GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump but you wouldn't know it from the attacks by the Illinois GOP establishment.

Never Hillary PAC, a newly formed federal Super PAC, is wasting no time in blasting Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner and incumbent Sen. Mark Kirk - both Republicans - for their ongoing attacks on Trump. The low-polling Kirk recently released a Spanish-only ad attacking Trump across Illinois.

Never Hillary PAC chairman, William J. Kelly, a former statewide GOP candidate for Illinois comptroller, issued the following statement:

    Gov. Rauner and Sen. Kirk have revealed their true traitorous colors in refusing to support Donald J. Trump, our GOP nominee for President. Trump won the Illinois primary with 39% in a four-way race and yet Rauner and Kirk continue to disrespect the voters. The latest poll shows only a small six-point gap between Trump and Clinton. That puts Illinois – Obama's home state - in play for the GOP but not if Rauner and Kirk have their way.

    Illinois voters are fed-up with this rigged political system and they now know what side these cowardly little pukes are on: the wrong side. Rauner and Kirk still refuse to criticize or condemn Crooked Hillary Clinton.

    In 2015, I busted the campaign finance caps in the Chicago mayor's race, forcing Rahm Emanuel into a historic run-off election. I was happy to do it because Chicago deserves better. But Rauner and Kirk actually endorsed Rahm "Deadfish" Emanuel for Mayor twice.

    Voters will remember what Kirk and Rauner have done this November and beyond. Gov. Rauner has written off Illinois GOP candidates up and down the ticket. But Never Hillary PAC will not let Gov. Rauner give-up the Illinois ground game. We will step up where he has backed down.

    Never Hillary PAC is raising $2.5 million in the next 42 days to run ads in Illinois and other states where establishment GOP leaders have turned their back on Donald Trump and his supporters.
