Dear Sandeep,
This past weekend, Raja brought his "Get Out The Vote" tour statewide, meeting voters in Cairo, Murphysboro, Collinsville, Springfield, Bloomington, Rock Island, and Rockford. He traveled across Illinois to mobilize volunteers and connect with voters face-to-face in every region of Illinois one more time before Election Day. Unlike his opponents, Raja has crisscrossed Illinois nonstop, meeting directly with Illinoisans in the Quad Cities, Rockford, Petersburg, Bloomington, Springfield, Metro East, Carbondale, and more. Just a few weeks ago, Raja traveled to East St. Louis, Champaign-Urbana, Normal, Moline, and Rockford to highlight his work to make life more affordable for every Illinois family.
On Monday, Raja cast his ballot early in the Illinois Primary Election in Schaumburg, the community he has represented in Congress for nearly a decade. Surrounded by friends, family, and supporters, Raja encouraged Illinoisans to make a plan to vote and take part in shaping our state and nation's future. "Today, alongside my wife, Priya, I was proud to cast my ballot and take part in the most fundamental act of our democracy," said Raja. "I encourage every Illinoisan to make a plan to vote and make your voice heard in this historic primary election.
On Tuesday, two more Democratic County Chairs from downstate Illinois announced their endorsements of Raja for U.S. Senate, adding to a powerful and growing wave of statewide momentum. With these endorsements, Raja now has the support of 23 Illinois Democratic County Chairs — a clear signal that downstate voters are backing a son of downstate and uniting behind his vision, record, and leadership. "Raja comes from the heart of Illinois — and he's never forgotten it," said Menard County Democratic Party Chair Brian Short. "He knows what our families are up against, and he's not afraid to take on the fights that matter."
On Wednesday, Raja for Illinois released its latest television ad of the cycle, "No One Fights Harder," featuring key Raja supporters speaking directly to voters about why Illinois needs Raja in the U.S. Senate. "They're saying a lot of BS about Raja. Here's the truth: he's the only candidate with a detailed plan to hold Trump accountable," said UFCW Local 881 President Steve Powell in the new spot. "Don't believe the lies. His opponents can call him whatever names they want – I call him the toughest fighter for working people I know."
On Friday, Latino leaders from across Chicago – including elected officials, small business owners, and community advocates – joined Raja in the heart of Chicago's historic Puerto Rican district in Humboldt Park for a high-energy "¡Raja No Se Raja!" rally to back Raja for U.S. Senate."¡Raja No Se Raja!" — a nod to the Spanish expression meaning "doesn't back down" – captures the spirit of his campaign defined by resilience, representation, and results.
We will continue to bring you news about Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi's efforts to stand up to Trump and fight for Illinois.
