| Description | The field of candidates hoping to fill a sudden void in the 10th Congressional District continues to expand, as state Rep. Julie Hamos has slated a Tuesday news conference to officially announce her bid for the office.
Hamos, a five-term Democrat from Evanston, chairs the House Mass Transit Committee and stresses issues related to affordable housing and health care.
At her Highland Park news conference, she aims to demonstrate a broad base of support as she enters a field that already includes Democrats Michael Bond, of Grayslake, and Dan Seals, of Wilmette.
Among supporters who will help her launch her campaign will be Buffalo Grove Mayor Eliot Hartstein, Cook County Commissioner Larry Suffredin, state Rep. Elaine Nekritz of Northbrook and state Sens. Jeff Schoenberg, of Evanston, and Susan Garrett, of Lake Forest, who has announced she would not seek the 10th District seat. |
