Roskam, Coolidge make 6th District cases

Voters in the redrawn 6th Congressional District will have a new face representing them in the U.S. House of Representatives come January.

Voters on Nov. 6 will choose whether to re-elect three-term Republican Rep. Peter Roskam or elect Democratic challenger Leslie Coolidge to the district, which will curve from southwest Lake and northwest Cook counties through northeast Kane County and the center of DuPage County.

Roskam, who is chief deputy whip in the 112th Congress, and Coolidge, a retired certified public accountant, spent time Monday talking with a Shaw Media Editorial Board about their platforms for the district.
