AURORA, Ill. -- Republican candidate for Illinois governor and Aurora Mayor Richard Irvin went on the offensive Monday about Governor JB Pritzker's handling of the LaSalle Veterans Home COVID crisis.

Irvin seized on the Inspector General's report that criticized Pritzker for his administration's handling of the COVID outbreak at the LaSalle Veteran's home that killed 36 veterans. "In Illinois, in Illinois, you know I'm running for governor in the state of Illinois, I'm not talking about what the federal government is going to do," Irvin said.Irvin also repeatedly dodged questions about Donald Trump from me and other reporters.

North Central College Political Science Professor Stephen Caliendo listened to the news conference and said Irvin tried his best to stick to his agenda.
