Congressman Eric Sorensen declared victory in Illinois’ 17th Congressional District race and issued the following statement:
“For two decades as your local meteorologist, it was my job to keep you safe and prepared for what was ahead, and that’s what I’m doing in Congress. Over the past two years, I’ve set out to make sure our community has a trusted neighbor serving them in Congress. And over this campaign, we’ve traveled to every corner of Illinois’ 17th District, meeting with neighbors and showing our work to make our community safer, healthier, and more affordable.
“Now, it’s about coming together to do what’s best for all of us and I am proud to be the good neighbor to represent you! We have a lot of challenges and hard work ahead of us, but I can tell you the sun will rise tomorrow morning and our forecast is bright.”
