FILE - In this Nov. 5, 2014 file photo, Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn speaks at a news conference in Chicago. Gov. Pat Quinn granted 179 clemency requests Wednesday, Dec. 24, 2014 after going through 604 petitions filed since 2008. The Chicago Democrat typically makes such announcements ahead of holidays and issued a Christmas Eve statement saying he's also denied 425 petitions. Quinn still has roughly 3,000 petitions with just weeks left before Republican Gov.-elect Bruce Rauner is sworn in. (AP Photo/Charles Rex Arbogast, File)
