Democratic gubernatorial candidate J.B. Pritzker locks up another key endorsement in the race for Governor. State Treasurer Michael Frerichs endorsed him Wednesday morning at the University of Illinois-Urbana-Champaign. The location was no accident.

On the other end of the educational spectrum, Frerichs is saluting Pritzker for his support of early childhood education.

Pritzker previously locked up the endorsements of Secretary of State Jesse White and Comptroller Susana Mendoza.
