JUST IN: Associated Press calls race between Trump-backed Mary Miller and Rodney Davis in Illinois' 15th Congressional District.
Illinois Republican Rep. Mary Miller called the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn the Roe v. Wade decision that had legalized abortion nationwide a "historic victory for white life" during a weekend rally with former President Donald Trump. Her spokesperson said she misspoke. She defeated fellow GOP incumbent Rodney Davis.
Davis was a co-chair of Trump’s 2020 Illinois campaign but voted to certify the 2020 presidential election results. He had the backing of almost all of the district’s 35 county party chairs and vowed to "reimplement" Trump policies, including walling off the U.S.-Mexico border. With more than 60 percent of the vote by 9 p.m. Tuesday, Casten was declared the winner of the democratic primary.
Charles Hughes was the third Democrat running in the primary for the 6th Congressional District seat. "I’m in awe that a community can come together with grassroots fundraising, with no corporate PAC contributions, and elected a working class Latina from Humboldt Park," Ramirez said. Flanked by her parents and husband, Ramirez said she saw her victory as a sign that Latinos — not just in Chicago but also in the suburbs — want to embrace progressive policies and leaders.
The Northwest Side alderman had planned to join his supporters Tuesday evening at a restaurant in Belmont Cragin, where, about an hour after polls closed, a handful of people crowded around a television broadcasting election returns. Classic salsa music played.
