JB Pritzker announced his run for re-election on June 26, leading some to wonder if the state has term limits for governors. Here's what to know.

Pritzker has positioned himself as a leading Democratic voice against President Donald Trump. He is the first Illinois governor since the late former Republican Gov. Jim Thompson to seek a third consecutive term. So far, the only known Republican who announced he is challenging Pritzker is DuPage County Sheriff James Mendrick.
