Election 2026: Quigley wins reelection for Illinois’ 5th Congressional District
U.S. Rep. Mike Quigley, a Democrat representing parts of Cook and DuPage counties, appears to have won reelection Tuesday, even as he seeks to become Chicago’s next mayor.
The Associated Press called the race at 8:09 p.m. Tuesday. Quigley brought in 76% of the vote as of 9 p.m., appearing to easily etch out Republican challenger Tommy Hanson, unofficial tallies show.
Race results won’t be certified as official for two weeks.
Quigley has represented the 5th District since 2009.
He also is campaigning to unseat Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson.
