And the winner of the Democratic primary for the Illinois 5th District, Brian Quigley, a Cook County Board member and long time member of the North Chicago political machine. He got a plurality of the vote with 22% (out of 12 candidates) despite not having any of the major union endorsements, his reputation as a reformer and an endorsement from the Chicago Sun-Times is probably what won him the day.
Winning the primary puts him as the front runner of a run-off race to be held against the winner of the Republican primary, Rosanna Pulido, on April 7th.
