Hear The Sounds Of 2014 In Illinois Politics

 

Brian Mackey compiled this audio montage for Illinois Public Radio, of some of the voices that made news in Illinois politics in 2014.

Most of the action was in the campaign for governor ... in which Bruce Rauner became the first Republican to win that office since the late 1990's. But you'll also hear the voices of Rauner's GOP primary rivals including Bill Brady and Dan Rutherford, Governor Pat Quinn, Illinois House Speaker Mike Madigan and the late state comptroller, Judy Baar Topinka.
