The debate is scheduled to take place at 7 p.m. and will be broadcast statewide.
First-term Democratic Gov. J.B. Pritzker and GOP nominee for governor Darren Bailey are facing off Thursday night in their first televised debate, a little more than one month before Election Day.
The debate is taking place at 7 p.m. at Illinois State University in Normal. Viewers across Illinois will be able to watch the debate, which will be broadcast statewide. In the Chicago area, it will air on WGN-Ch. 9 and on WGN’s website.Since winning their respective primaries in late June, Pritzker and Bailey have been campaigning across the state and have been harshly critical of each other.
Gov. J.B. Pritzker, left, and GOP gubernatorial nominee Darren Bailey, right, speak on Aug. 24, 2022, at Schuler Farms in Lexington, Illinois, during the Illinois Agricultural Legislative Roundtable. Bailey, a state senator and farmer from downstate Xenia, has focused much of his criticism of Pritzker on his decision to sign into law the Safety, Accountability, Fairness and Equity-Today Act. Bailey contends pretrial detention provisions over cashless bail in the SAFE-T Act will bring Chicago-like crime to the rest of the state.
while Pritzker said Bailey was a Donald “Trump extremist who would take our state backward.” That 45-minute debate was sponsored by the Illinois Associated Press Media Editors.
