After months of campaigning and seemingly endless TV ads, the election is nigh. Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn and Republican challenger Bruce Rauner are fighting for every vote, and shattering the state spending record to do it.

That and more will be discussed as veteran Statehouse reporter Ray Long of the Chicago Tribune joins host Bill Wheelhouse and regular panelists Amanda Vinicky, Charlie Wheeler, and Brian Mackey for this edition of State Week.

Brian Mackey formerly reported on state government and politics for NPR Illinois and a dozen other public radio stations across the state. Before that, he was A&E editor at The State Journal-Register and Statehouse bureau chief for the Chicago Daily Law Bulletin.
