Morning Spin: Democrats still looking votes to override Rauner's gun store licensing veto

April 19, 2018 5:00 AM

 

...

Even as gun control advocates rallied under the Capitol dome, Democrats said they're still looking for the votes they'd need to override Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner's veto of a gun store licensing bill.

...

(Senator Don Harmon) said he is still working to get enough votes to override Rauner's veto. .... Democratic state Rep. Kathleen Willis of Addison, the bills House sponsor, said she was still about seven votes short in that chamber.

"Rep. Kathleen Willis of Addison, the bill’s House sponsor, said she was still about seven votes short in that chamber"

 

So she hasn't flipped any. 7 more is what was originally needed in the House. Harmon needs 6. Hopefully we can hold on to 13.

 

Continue to call and visit. My Senator is good to go on this. My Rep on the other hand is unfortunately hopeless.

Make no mistake about it they are hard to try and squeeze the votes out and think they can scare republicans into voting for this

keep calling your senators and reps

They are specifically targeting collar County Republicans in districts that Hillary won.

If you are in one of those, especially in DuPage, please maintain contact with your legislators.
