Illinois politics has a long history of blurred ethical lines, but the latest episode involving Wirepoints pushes those boundaries into legally dangerous territory.

Wirepoints, a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, has published a political attack piece targeting Republican gubernatorial candidate Darren Bailey – while its former president, Ted Dabrowski, is running for the same office in the 2026 Republican primary.
Dabrowski appeared to recognize this reality in September 2025, when he resigned as president of Wirepoints, explicitly citing the need to comply with 501(c)(3) restrictions ahead of his gubernatorial campaign.

Shortly thereafter, he formally announced his candidacy, named a running mate, and began raising campaign funds.

But resignation alone does not erase conflicts of interest.
