Journalists at WBEZ and the Chicago Sun-Times are working hard to ensure our 2026 election coverage is most relevant to you.
That’s why we’re asking you what Illinois political candidates should be talking about this primary election season. The Illinois primaries are coming up on Tuesday, March 17, and candidates are running for local, state and federal offices. Those range from an open Illinois U.S. Senate seat to elections for the local pols who manage your property taxes.
Take this brief survey to help us decide what issues and questions to put to the candidates.
