ISRA Political Victory Fund Announces Endorsements for Illinois Governor and Other Key Races

The ISRA-PVF board of directors is pleased to announce the organization’s candidate endorsements and preferences for the 2010 Illinois Primary Election.

Endorsement and preference decisions were made by the board of directors after a careful review of candidate qualifications, voting records, candidate survey responses, and other pertinent factors that gauge the candidates’ suitability.

In the Republican primary race for Illinois Governor, the ISRA-PVF has endorsed the candidacy of Kirk Dillard.

The board found this a very difficult decision in light of the fact that the crowded field of candidates included long-time friend Sen. Bill Brady and exciting newcomer, Adam Andrzejewski.

In the Democratic primary race for Illinois Governor, the ISRA-PVF board of directors has expressed a preference for candidate Pat Quinn over his opponent, Dan Hynes.

In the Republican primary race for Illinois Lt. Governor, the ISRA-PVF board of directors has expressed its preference for candidate Jason Plummer.

In the Democratic primary race for Illinois Lt. Governor, the ISRA-PVF board of directors has expressed its preference for candidate Art Turner.

In the Republican primary race for Illinois State Treasurer, the ISRA-PVF has endorsed candidate Dan Rutherford.

A full list of endorsements and candidate preferences may be found at the ISRA-PVF Web site: isra-pvf.com

I cannot believe ISRA chose politics over long-standing principles. Dillard is wishy-washy on concealed carry, and his voting record pales in comparison to Bill Brady’s rock-solid record. This is absolutely unacceptable. You can forget sending me a renewal of my membership. I don’t belong to organizations that sell out like this. When Brady wins the primary, every member of that organizations board of directors should voluntarily resign.

I also cannot believe that the ISRA would endorse Kirk Dillard. What are you people thinking ? I for one
have had it with Chicago style politics. I am very dissapointed that you would endorse another Chicago politician instead of one of our own from downstate Illinois. I hope you haven’t lost a very good ally because of this.

I couldn’t agree more with the downstater. Kirk Dillard is ANTI- concealed carry, period. I quit the ISRA because of politics Chicago style long ago.
