At a press conference this week, Irvin dodged multiple questions about whether he voted for Trump.
“That’s exactly what J.B. Pritzker wants all of you to be talking about. Voters know my record,” said Irvin during one of his attempts to swat away the question. “What I’m hearing around the state is people want to focus on the future.”
They were part of a February 2018 text conversation between Irvin and a retired longtime Aurora city employee. The former employee requested their name not be used, but WTTW News verified the person’s phone number and verified the physical existence of the text messages on the retired employee’s phone.
Irvin’s comments about Trump came in response to the former employee’s complaint that Irvin had decided to plan a city Gay Pride parade on Father’s Day. The former employee asked Irvin to consider having it on Mother’s Day and indicated that they were uncomfortable with the parade in general.
