A federal judge shut down former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich’s (D) latest attempt to regain ballot eligibility by quoting Dr. Seuss, underlining the former governor’s fall from political star to laughingstock.
Blagojevich sued the state of Illinois in 2020, alleging the General Assembly’s decision to remove him from office and bar him from running again violated his civil rights. The former governor was impeached and convicted on corruption charges stemming from all...
