Exclusive Reboot Illinois Poll: Will Lisa Madigan be Challenged in Fourth Attorney General Bid?
Republican candidate Paul Schimpf is a political newcomer in Illinois. Can he overcome the name Madigan?
Since 2002, Lisa Madigan has been the Attorney General in Illinois. After flirting with a run for governor, she chose to stick with running for a fourth term as Attorney General. Her Republican opponent this year is political newcomer Paul Schimpf.
Madigan’s only competitive election for attorney general was her first, in 2002, when she defeated DuPage County State’s Attorney Joe Birkett 50 percent to 47 percent.
Will she have to deal with a competitive election this time around?
