Forby will likely hold on

Posted in:

Illinois

Democratic state Sen. Gary Forby will likely prevail in his southern Illinois race against Ron Summers, according to sources in both parties.

Meanwhile, Sen. Pamela Althoff is clobbering Democrat Patrick Ouimet in the northwest suburbs. And Rep. Bill Grunloh has been whipped but good by Republican David Reis. Rep. Careen Gordon (D-Coal City) will likely hold on to her seat. Rep. Lisa Dugan (D-Bradley) is doing very well.

At the moment it looks like the House Democrats will lose two (Ricca Slone and Bill Grunloh) and gain one (Frank Aguilar), for a net of minus one. The Senate Democrats lose one (Pat Welch) and pick up none, for a net of minus one.
