From the Editorial Board: What do driver’s licenses have to do with abortion or Donald Trump? If that sounds like an absurd question, you were not at our endorsement meeting for the Democratic side of the upcoming primary for Illinois secretary of state.

Plenty of legitimate cash changes hands at the secretary of state’s office on a routine basis and the boss not only has to be squeaky clean when it comes to who gets contracts for what, but has to be seen as such by colleagues, lest corruption fester at lower levels. Unlike Trump and abortion, that matter has a direct bearing on the professional duties of the office, which is also tasked with regulating lobbyists for state government.
Moore clearly regarded all of the negative campaigning of his higher profile rivals as ridiculous. He’s right there. We don’t doubt that Moore would serve this office with integrity and with an eye toward equity. He had some excellent ideas when it came to the intersection of the office with library services.But even if his ambitions might eventually land elsewhere, Giannoulias has the edge here.
