WASHINGTON — Heading toward the June 28 Illinois primary, snapshots from polls taken for Rep. Sean Casten and state Sen. Jacqueline Collins — in competitive Democratic races in the 6th and 1st congressional districts — show them in decent positions and also provide insights into voter behavior and the electorate.
An interesting nugget of information from the poll taken for Casten — locked in a battle with another incumbent, Rep. Marie Newman — is that 46% of those polled in the 6th Congressional District, which sweeps in parts of suburban Cook and DuPage counties, prefer to vote in person on Election Day rather than take advantage of mail or early in-person voting options.
