Show Notes
For most of the last 80 years, two people have represented a large chunk of Illinois’ 9th congressional district.
First, it was Sidney Yates – who served nearly a half century.
Then, Jan Schakowsky took office in 1999 and she’s been there since – but this is her last term.
It’s the first time in generations that so many people have fought for this seat.
WBEZ’s Alex Degman brings us an overview of the race.
