Tammy Duckworth is a major upgrade in representation! Since redistricting, my new rep is Brad Schneider another Democrat. I didn't support him in the primary but I voted for him in the general. He seemed like too much of a corporate shill to me. He beat Robert Dold in a close race. But, He's a Democrat, and any Democrat on his worst day beats any Republican on his best. I'll live with him.
