Edgar and Kustra clash on abortion in Illinois ticket

In Chicago, Secretary of State Jim Edgar, seeking the Republican governor nomination, chose Sen. Robert Kustra as running mate, despite opposing views on abortion. They agree education is the top Illinois issue and say their policy differences won’t derail the ticket. Kustra, a Northwestern University professor, will handle education expertise while Edgar runs the show. Separately, Rep. Tom Homer announced a bid for state treasurer with a plan for a $100 million student loan program for middle income families and office modernization.
