This week on CapitolView, Gov. JB Pritzker’s campaign attacked his GOP challenger, Sen. Darren Bailey, for comments comparing the Holocaust to abortion. But how will that attack play out in the campaign, and will Sen. Bailey’s response be enough? Plus, Kansas voters said no to a constitutional amendment that would have made it easier for lawmakers to restrict abortion in the Sunflower State – we’ll examine how that vote might predict turnout and results in Illinois. Watch CapitolView – our weekly look at happenings inside and outside the Illinois Capitol.
