Citing need for scarce resources in Iowa and New Hampshire, Walsh skipping Illinois presidential primary

Former Congressman Joe Walsh told the Chicago Sun-Times he is skipping the Illinois presidential primary in his campaign for the Republican nomination for the Presidency.

Today was the last day for the 2-day filing period for the presidential primary, including for the slates of delegates who will appear on the ballot aligned with a presidential candidate.

Campaign spokesman Charles Siler said the following of Walsh’s campaign’s decision:

“He’s devastated by it. He loves he loves Illinois and he loves representing his constituents and wants to give Republicans in Illinois a choice and a voice.

“We’ve been focusing on early states like Iowa. We have a big team in Iowa. We have a team in New Hampshire.

“And part of it is that we have to convince a lot of the Republican donors that there is a viable option and they’re going to want to see results before they put money into our organization.”

Joe Walsh Lays An Egg — 7 Comments

  1. Will Walsh be singing Rocky Mountain Way or any other Eagles tunes?

    Oh, wrong Joe Walsh!

  2. Why is that guy still around? He should do all of us a favor and quietly slip back into
    private life.

  3. He has fallen far from the days when was a favorite here, hosting his summer cookout, acting belligerent to anyone questioning him as his fawning followers cooed approvingly.

  4. Neither Walsh nor Weld submitted paperwork.

    Perennial candidate Rocky De La Fuente filed to run against Trump.

    The other Republican presidential hopeful, John Schiess, even found one willing delegate.

    His name is Phil Collins.

    Many people on this blog know Phil Collins.

    But did you know Phil Collins is a presidential candidate himself???

    He is the nominee of the Prohibition Party!

  5. Steve Miller tune comes to mind “go on, take the money and run”….

    Joe is going through the motions, raise some money, keeps it when its all over and retires with his wife to Israel as has been his plan all along and echoed on his past radio shows.

    Nice try Joe…

    Trump wins—again.

    You lose…Sean from Elmwood Park wins too.
