Juliana Stratton, a 60‑year‑old Democrat endorsed by Governor J.B. Pritzker, has won Illinois’s open Senate primary, beating US Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi and 10 other candidates. If she wins the November general election, she would become the sixth Black U.S. senator overall and the second Black woman to represent Illinois. Stratton’s campaign, highlighted by her emphasis on "courage," positions her as a progressive choice for the seat.
