There was a launch and formal announcement made last night, about the potential new governor of Illinois. His name is Gary Rabine, and last night he made things official. RABINE

Born and raised in Illinois, Gary is a family man that takes pride in hard work and the growth of the state of Illinois.

"Gary’s entrepreneurial passion has inspired the creation of over 30 small businesses right here in Illinois. Each business strives to be world class leaders in their industry.    Gary knows the importance of keeping jobs here at home, and he’s proud that almost all of his businesses have been started and grown in our state." - Rabine for Governor 

A family man and father of four adult children, Mr. Rabine has also dealt with tragedy. His wife and partner of thirty five years, passed away after a lengthy 52-month battle with brain cancer. That obviously required a strong support system, which Gary has. He is now ready for this next important step in his life, running for Governor of Illinois.

While I'm not suggesting or telling you what to do, it's always nice to provide information about alternatives and what's new in Illinois. On his Facebook page, Mr. Rabine is described as "Conservative businessman and job creator who is running for Governor of Illinois to cut taxes, create thousands of jobs, and fight crime." The rest is up to you, Illinois.

I love the area I live in and I love the state I live it. With two adult sons of my own, and two young girls that will soon be added to the family...I simply want the best for them, and the most opportunities where they live.
