State Senator Terri Bryant (R-Murphysboro) released the following statement in response to the passage of Senate Bill 2412, which changes Illinois’ election process in the middle of this year’s ongoing election cycle:
“If you ever wanted proof of an attempt to steal an election, you found the perfect example with Senate Bill 2412. This massive change to our state’s election process was filed and passed out of the General Assembly in just 24 hours. You may ask why the rush? Well, the answer is simple – it is to ensure that the Majority Party’s preferred candidates can avoid having to face the people this November. This legislation is an absolute abuse of power by Democrats and without a question undemocratic.”
