Many of the seven GOP candidates hoping to run against Democratic U.S. Sen. Tammy Duckworth have ratcheted up their conservative rhetoric.
Vice President Kamala Harris smiles after greeting Sen. Tammy Duckworth in the Rose Garden of the White House in Washington on May 17, 2022, during a reception to celebrate Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Heritage Month.
None of the Republican candidates have the name recognition of Duckworth, of Hoffman Estates, who is running unopposed in the Democratic primary. And none of their campaigns come anywhere near the $7.1 million Duckworth’s campaign reported having in the bank as of March 31.Mundelein attorney Kathy Salvi, who has staked out more traditional party positions than the other candidates, leads the GOP hopefuls in both campaign finances and endorsements.
Salvi says she opposes abortion and supports building a wall along the southern border with Mexico to halt illegal immigration. When asked during awhether the 2020 presidential election was stolen, Salvi did not give a direct answer. Peggy Hubbard, a Navy veteran, former police officer and former IRS agent from Belleville, outside St. Louis, has called Salvi a pawn of the Illinois GOP, which Hubbard said “is working in unison with the Democrats to keep the control in Chicago.”
Formerly a “staunch Democrat,” Hubbard said she became a Republican in 2014, after a police officer shot and killed a young Black man, Michael Brown, in Ferguson, Missouri, sparking protests and condemnation of police brutality against Black people. She said she felt Democrats went too far in condemning police.
