We are pleased to note that Illinois is sending Juliana Stratton to the U.S. Senate and three new women to the U.S. House: Donna Miller (IL-2), Patty Garcia (IL-4), and Melissa Bean (IL-8). There are many other notable Democratic Women victories, including flipping the County Treasurer seats in DuPage and Kane Counties — Yeena Yoo in DuPage County and Penny Wegman in Kane County beat longtime incumbents! Please share your election day stories with us by contacting us here.
