Abstract

Senator Dick Durbin, the second-ranking Democrat in the Senate, has announced his decision not to seek reelection next year after serving five terms. His retirement will lead to a new generation of party leaders emerging. Democrats are likely to retain his Illinois seat, as the state has not elected a Republican senator since 2010. Several potential contenders, including Illinois Lieutenant Governor Juliana Stratton and Representative Raja Krishnamoorthi, are considering running in the upcoming primary election.
