Tom Lopach, Executive Director of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, issued the following statement following Tammy Duckworth’s primary night victory in Illinois:
“We are proud to congratulate Tammy Duckworth on a decisive victory in tonight’s primary. Tammy’s tenacity and dedication to her work on behalf of Illinois is unmatched, and she has a built a proven record of fighting for veterans, women and working families. That’s exactly the type of person Illinois needs in the Senate. Senator Mark Kirk has consistently looked out for Wall Street instead of Main Street, voting against efforts to make college more affordable and supporting plans to turn Medicare into a voucher all while protecting the corporate special interests. We’re proud to support Tammy’s campaign, and we look forward to celebrating her victory in November.”
