As Marquette Law School polls have consistently shown, the foremost concerns of the voters are inflation and the cost of living, immigration and health insurance. Hong had difficulty handling this other than to say the “governor can’t defund the police.” Hong suggested that she would not have made the comments before an investigation as a governor, but shouldn’t she be similarly responsible as a legislator? Crowley is the only candidate who favored the failed budget surplus bill backed by Republican legislative leaders and Gov. She is dead last (along with Brennan) in the polls and couldn’t offer any reason to think that will change.
