Veto Override Session

Two Democratic Party Governors who couldn't get along with their legislators--Pat Quinn, here seen as Lt. Governor, and Rod Blagojevich.

When Governor Dan Walker was in office, fall sessions were called “veto override sessions.”

The next Democratic Party Governor, Rod Blagojevich has similar problems.

As this past week shows, the third Democratic Party Governor in a row can’t get along well enough with the General Assembly to sustain his vetoes.

Even when he is right, as he most assuredly was on his veto of the Com Ed/Ameren electric rate hike bill.

If you have not seen the contributions that the State Senators who voted to override Senate Bill 1652, please take a look at what I found.
