Treasurer Dan Rutherford seeks voters' opinions on gubernatorial run

(MCT) — State Treasurer Dan Rutherford, long mentioned as a potential Republican candidate for governor, used the Web and social media Sunday to urge supporters to sign up for a possible 2014 race for Illinois chief executive.

Rutherford's website asks visitors, "Would you support Dan Rutherford for governor of Illinois?" It also promotes a statement from the first-term treasurer and former state lawmaker in which he says, "Now is the time for leaders to act with conviction and courage."
