While debating, candidates offered no concrete suggestions for addressing fiscal problems but possibilities exist.

The next debate for Illinois nominees for governor is this Wednesday in Chicago. But two candidates are being left out this time around.

There are two third party candidates for Illinois governor. And while four names will be on the ballot November 6th (or now, if you choose to vote early) - the efforts to get out messaging is one where odds are certainly stacked heavily against Sam McCann of the Conservative party, and Grayson "Kash" Jackson, running as a Libertarian.

CHICAGO (AP) — Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner on Thursday accused rival J.B. Pritzker of plotting a massive income tax hike on the people of Illinois, a claim the Democrat dismissed as another lie from a governor who's "been lying for three-and-a-half years."

As of Monday, there are 50 days until Election Day. And in the race for Illinois governor, debate season is finally getting underway.
