Governor JB Pritzker has won a third term. Pritzker easily defeated the same challenger he defeated in 2022, Republican nominee Darren Bailey.
Democrats also kept their US Senate seat as Juliana Stratton defeated Don Tracy to take over the seat that was previously held by Dick Durbin. Durbin decided not to run for re-election earlier this year.
In other state wide races Mike Frerichs will remain State Treasurer, Alexi Giannoulias will stay the Secretary of State, Kwame Raoul remains Illinois Attorney General, and Margaret Croke will be the new Illinois Comptroller
