Illinois Lieutenant Governor Juliana Stratton has secured the Democratic primary nomination for an open U.S. Senate seat, defeating ten opponents, including U.S. Representatives Raja Krishnamoorthi and Robin Kelly. Her campaign, supported by pro-Israel donors and Governor JB Pritzker, focused on raising the federal minimum wage and abolishing ICE. Stratton’s win positions her as a strong candidate heading into the November elections, where Democrats aim to address cost-of-living issues amid a challenging political landscape.
