We did it — I’m officially the Democratic nominee for the 13th District.

The polls are officially closed in Illinois, and our team is laser-focused on finishing the job in November.

I officially have my opponent — and we know that the dark money working on an agenda that hurts the working families of IL-13 will work nonstop to flip this seat.

So our team is launching our official General Election Fund this evening, and I would personally be grateful if you made a founding contribution.

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

We’ve made so much progress for families across Central and Southern Illinois in so little time. We’ve been able to invest in our infrastructure, have fought to ensure that our farmers have the resources they need to farm sustainably, and have recently taken steps to improve the infrastructure and services available to our loved ones with developmental disabilities.

Team — as long as I’m serving this district, you’ll have a leader who isn’t looking to score political points by attacking the other side, but a true legislator who’s willing to work across the aisle to get things done.

I’m committed to protecting our right to bodily autonomy and reproductive healthcare, making sure folks are able to collectively bargain in good-faith with their employers for safer and better workplaces, as well as keep the issues of everyday families at the core of my agenda.

So please, make a founding contribution to our General Election Fund right now to help me build on our progress and keep fighting for families across Central and Southern Illinois.

Thanks, friend. Let’s win this thing.

— Nikki
