CHICAGO — We may finally know who won the Republican nomination for governor by the end of the day Tuesday.
Tuesday is the deadline for counting absentee and provisional votes.
Election officials have five days to get the results to the state board of elections.
The primary race between State Senator Bill Brady and Senator Kirk Dillard has been too close to call.
Brady is leading Dillard by just 420 votes. Dillard hopes the absentee votes narrow the gap, and he has not identified a threshold around which he would concede the election.
Both campaigns say they’ll follow the vote counts closely.
