Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) repeated his criticism of Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn (D) and his handling of the state’s pension crisis, ABC Chicago reports.
Said Durbin: “I believe this governor, any governor is going to be judged based on performance and the likelihood of Governor Quinn being re-nominated and re-elected depends to a great extent on his success in Springfield.”
Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan (D) and former U.S. Commerce Secretary Bill Daley (D) are both considering challenging the incumbent in the 2014 Democratic primary.
