Several statewide, local races close among local voters
While Democrat JB Pritzker handily defeated incumbent Governor Bruce Rauner in the mid-term elections, the story was much different in Kane County where Pritzker defeated Rauner by just a few hundred votes.
It was a similar situation in the Attorney General race, where locally, Democrat Kwame Raoul defeated Republican Erika Harold by just a slim margin. Some other tight races among Kane County voters include the 14th District, where Democrat Lauren Underwood barely pulled out the win, and in the 6th District, where Democrat Sean Casten beat Republican Peter Roskam by two percentage points. Many of the General Assembly races were also very close among local voters.
Here’s a listing of the winners in the statewide and Kane County races.
