Cook County<\/a> Commissioner Donna Miller beat out former U.S. Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr., D-Ill., and State Sen. Robert Peters, D-Ill., in a Democratic primary race on Tuesday evening, teeing up her bid to represent one of the state\u2019s many reliably blue seats.<\/p>\n

Miller centered her campaign on healthcare issues<\/a> like affordability and maternity on her website and social media.<\/p>\n

“In Congress, I\u2019ll defend reproductive rights<\/a> and lower costs,” Miller, a former board member for Planned Parenthood, said in a campaign video.<\/a><\/p>\n

She raised $1.9 million, according to FEC records,<\/a> dwarfing contributions from Peters and Jackson.<\/p>\n

Miller looks to fill the seat of Rep. Robin Kelly, D-Ill.,<\/a> a seven-term incumbent pursuing a bid for U.S. Senate.<\/p>\n

As one of 17 commissioners, Miller helped manage the affairs of Cook County, including managing its finances, meeting state and federal requirements and overseeing county operations.<\/p>\n

Miller first joined the Cook County Board of Commissioners in 2018. Before her time with Cook County, she served in leadership positions in a number of organizations, including as a now-former board member of Planned Parenthood of Illinois, vice president of Illinois Democratic Women and president of Democratic Women of South Suburbs, according to her website.<\/a><\/p>\n

Illinois\u2019 Second Congressional District<\/a> begins at its northernmost point in the heart of Chicago and stretches down about a two-hour drive south along the state\u2019s border with Indiana.<\/p>\n

The district has been a Democratic stronghold for 70 years. Kelly, its incumbent, last won reelection in 2024 by a 35.1% margin over Republican challenger Ashley Ramos.<\/p>\n

Its last Republican representative<\/a>, Richard B. Vail,<\/a> lost reelection in 1952.<\/p>\n

Having secured the Democratic nomination for the district, Miller will face off against Mike Noack in November, a truck driver who is running unopposed as the Republican candidate.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
