The three leading Democratic contenders facing off for #Illinois' open Senate seat on Tuesday have
✅ vowed to extensively reform or eliminate U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement,-- a reflection of how the killings of two U.S. citizens in Minnesota earlier this year have elevated immigration as a top issue for the party in this year's midterm elections.
A strong stance against Donald Trump's immigration policies has worked elsewhere. 💪🏽
💥In New Jersey, Analilia #Mejia won a special congressional Democratic primary in a crowded field on a pledge to abolish ICE, the lead agency sending masked and heavily armed officers into U.S. cities to enforce Trump's aggressive deportation targets.
Such positions might be perilous for Democrats as the general elections loom in November,
though that risk may be less pronounced in Illinois,
a reliable Democratic stronghold where a Republican has not won statewide office since 2014.Retiring Senator Dick #Durbin, 81, has been a titan in the liberal wing of the Senate for decades and a staunch defender of immigrant rights, pushing for legislation to give immigrants who came to the U.S. as children a pathway to citizenship.
The leading candidates to replace Durbin have taken up immigration reform, especially of ICE,
👉as Trump's approval rating on the issue has declined from 50% a year ago to just 39% at the end of February,
according to Reuters/Ipsos polling.U.S. Rep. Raja #Krishnamoorthi wants to "abolish Trump's ICE."
Illinois Lieutenant Governor Juliana #Stratton, who marched with protesters during a deportation blitz in Chicago last fall, has called for eliminating the agency outright.
U.S. Representative Robin #Kelly has gone even further, saying the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees ICE, should be "dismantled," and its outgoing secretary, Kristi Noem, impeached.

#NorthCarolina, March 3: Why not me?
The Democratic wave of 2018 was led by novice candidates with appealing outsider biographies,
many of whom flipped long-held Republican districts.
The mountains and foothills of western North Carolina,
home to the state’s 11th Congressional District,
are a good place to see the beginning of this trend at work in 2026.
Though the district includes the picturesque
— and politically blue
— city of Asheville,
no Democrat has represented it for more than a decade.Republican Chuck Edwards has held the district since 2023, and Trump carried it by 10 points in 2024. Jamie #Ager, a fourth-generation farmer who has never run for office, is hoping to change that.
“I looked around and saw that 2026 is sort of this moment in history when we need good leadership in this country,” said Ager,
one of five Democrats running to oust Edwards.“And I am in a uniquely interesting place to go win.”
Ager has so far raised the most money among the Democrats.
But he is not alone in the race.
Richard #Hudspeth, a family physician in a small town south of Asheville, is another first-time candidate.
He is looking to take on the Republican-led Congress’s cutting of rural health care.
Will 2024 be a repeat of 2018 for Democrats?It starts with finding the right candidates to meet the moment
— and fit the district.#Illinois, March 17: The money vs. the machine
When octogenarian Dick Durbin,
an Illinois senator for nearly three decades, announced last year he would not be seeking another term,
he opened up a safe Democratic seat
— and a torrent of pent-up political ambition.No fewer than 10 people are running in the primary.
A trio are considered the strongest contenders:
Rep. Raja #Krishnamoorthi,Lt. Gov. Juliana #Stratton
and Rep. Robin #Kelly.
Like Democrats across the country, the three are tailoring their messages to voters’ concerns
about rising costs and affordability.Where they differ are in the allies and assets they are bringing to the battle. Stratton
— whom Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker has endorsed,
throwing his formidable political machinery behind her
— is campaigning on her experience, positioning herself as the most effective counter to Trump
and vowing to fight for a raft of progressive policies,
including Medicare-for-all.Krishnamoorthi, who has a massive financial advantage
and is the most moderate among the leaders in the race,
is campaigning on issues like free school lunches
and a tax credit for new homeowners.Kelly has channeled populist passions by proposing a minimum tax on those whose net worth exceeds $100 million.
Are voters in this reliably blue state looking for pragmatic and centrist candidates who can reposition their party,do they want to stoke their base with progressive ideas,
or are they looking for a champion to take the fight to Trump?
The Illinois primary could offer a barometer of where Democrats across the country will come down on these questions as they seek a path back to power in Washington.

Ski season. Stratton mountain. And so it behind.
A bit foggy but good surface. About half the trails open making navhation a little tricky.

I visited one of my favorite #coffee spots yesterday, Ungrounded in Jamaica #vermont. Sitting in the sun, drinking what to my taste is the perfect #americano, I felt like I should tell y’all about this place. The Aussie guy who does top notch roasting, makes great #espresso drinks and has been there working hard and been kind and helpful almost every one of the dozens of times I’ve gone.
If you #ski near #stratton this winter, you owe it to yourself to check it out!
