Ted Dabrowski and Carrie Mendoza are our endorsed candidates for Governor and Lieutenant Governor.

Ted is the former president of Wirepoints, where he helped build an Illinois-centric policy research and commentary brand based on straight talk, hard data and fiscal realism. Ted previously worked from 2011 to 2017 at the Illinois Policy Institute, where he served as Spokesman and Vice President of Policy.

Prior to that, Ted spent more than 15 years building out and managing divisions of Citibank’s franchises in the developing, high-growth markets of Mexico and Poland.

Ted’s inspiration to fix Illinois comes from the experiences of his father and mother, who immigrated to Chicago from Poland and Ecuador in pursuit of the American Dream.

Ted and his wife, Ellen, live in Wilmette and are parents to three daughters and a son.
