Senate Republican Leader Dan McConchie said that he believes in the abilities of new ILGOP Chairman Don Tracy.
“I am confident that Don’s business and political experience will be of great value to our party as we begin to rebuild and grow the GOP in our state,” McConchie said.
Tracy is an attorney and businessman. He was also the former head of the Illinois Gaming Board under former Gov. Bruce Rauner.
Many have been saying that he is the right choice to lead the party.
The new chairman has released the following statement in response to his selection:
“I am truly honored and excited to have been chosen by the State Central Committee to serve as Chairman of the Illinois Republican Party. I want to thank each member for the opportunity to serve. I promise to lead with honesty, integrity, and the vigor we need to turn Illinois around. I also want to thank the other two finalists - Mark Shaw and Scott Gryder - for their tireless work on behalf of the Republican Party. I look forward to working with them to elect more Republicans.
"The only way we can capitalize on these opportunities in 2022 is if we unite the party," Tracy added.
