Williams fights to stay in Illinois governor race
Dakin Williams, Belleville attorney and brother of Tennessee Williams, challenges to enter the Democratic primary for governor, accusing party machinery of rails to keep outsiders off the ballot. He blames Secretary of State Michael Howlett and a law firm allied with Howlett for the petitions contest. If defeated, Williams hints Monday could be his final political bid.
