I cannot stress enough how much we need Peggy Flanagan and Juliana Stratton in the U.S. Senate in 2027. They both run circles around their opponents on ICE and reining in administration overreach. And being unbought. And tireless.

Abughazaleh is getting crushed in the Cook and Lake County suburbs. Evidence that Mamdani style leftism only has purchase in deep-blue cities and college towns.

Stratton has officially crossed the 40% threshold, and her margin should continue to expand since most of the outstanding votes are in Chicago. Raja really flopped pretty much everywhere except for a few of the collar counties near/in his district and the Quad Cities area.

VoteHub projects Juliana Stratton to win the Illinois Democratic primary for U.S. Senate.
