Daniel Biss-J.B. Pritzker rivalry highlighted in televised debate
One of the biggest stories to emerge from the NBC Chicago Democratic gubernatorial debate Tuesday night is the emerging rivalry between state senator Daniel Biss and billionaire businessman J.B. Pritzker, according to the Tribune. Biss and Pritzker sparred with each other frequently during the debate. After the debate ended, Biss questioned why Pritzker spent so much time attacking him. “He’s obviously worried. He kept naming me all night long,” Biss said. “What I left here wondering [was], ‘What’s in J.B. Pritzker’s polling data? Why on this day was J.B. Pritzker all of a sudden going after me?'” [Tribune]
