Dan Proft: Prophet of racial division in Illinois

Conservative political operative Dan Proft continues to bombard Illinoisans with millions of dollars in scurrilous political ads featuring an endless loop of crime videos from black and brown Chicago neighborhoods.

The message is relentless: re-elect JB Pritzker and this minority lawlessness is coming to your bucolic suburb.

Vickie Ponciano’s nephew was a murder victim shown in one of Proft’s video ads. She appeared with Rev. Michael Pfleger in a protest outside GOP gubernatorial candidate Darren Bailey’s Hancock Center apartment, demanding Bailey disassociate himself from Proft’s ads.

Bailey refuses, as hyping Chicago violence represents his sole, desperate bid to reclaim conservative suburban voters who’ve abandoned him due to his anti abortion, pro gun policies.

Proft distributes the racial violence video ads thru his PAC, People Who Play By The Rules. They are largely financed by GOP billionaire donor Dick Uihlein.

Proft calling his PAC, People Who Play By The Rules, is worse than putting lipstick on a pig. He should be honest with us and call it, People Fomenting Racial Division To Win Elections.
