If Dylan Blaha gets elected in #IL13, who moves up in progressive politics will be decided by a team that will probably include:
• @robertpeters.bsky.social #IL02
• @delia.bsky.social #IL03
@budzinski.house.gov @housedemocrats.bsky.social censure these two now for their despicable racist speech. Stop allowing such hate to be spewed without punishment. #IL13 demands Democrats to stand up to MAGAt hate.
If campaigns that have money to do polls aren't publishing polls, one can infer the polls they are doing are not flattering to the campaign.
As others are noting, it seems like there should be more polling of IL-02, IL-07, IL-08, & IL-13.
#IL02
#IL07
#IL08
#IL13
Ill8nois' 2nd, 7th, 8th, and 9th districts March 17
I would add #IL13 & #IL06.
@dylanthomasblaha.bsky.social is mounting an issues based challenge to Rep. Nikki Budzinski. And @joeyruzevichil6.bsky.social is doing the same with @seancasten.bsky.social.
Those rans should be good barometers for antipathy toward Trump Middle East policy.

Presumably, AIPAC would prefer the following incumbents win:
#IL05 Mike Quigley
#IL06 Sean Casten

#IL13 Nikki Budzinski
Give Dylan a repost on BlueSky.
Let's get him what he needs to win. #IL13

Tonight’s town hall with @tiffanymuller.bsky.social and @budzinski.house.gov is yet another reminder that people are ready for change. And with her latest Anti-Corruption Agenda, #IL13 residents can trust that Rep. Budzinski is putting their interests first in Washington.
💸 I’m excited to announce $6.6 million more in federal funding heading to #IL13! This brings our grand total to over $34 million in community project funding this year! Learn more:
I'm late to the party here, but if you're anywhere in #IL13, we can do better than Nikki Budzinski.
Last week, the House advanced some major wins for #IL13 in our budget package, including funding to address flooding in the Metro East and improve the safety of our drinking water.
I’m going to keep pushing back against President Trump’s harmful cuts to rural America.
Champaign, Illinois is down. #IL13
@dylanthomasblaha.bsky.social
I believe @dylanthomasblaha.bsky.social & others standing up at personal risk made a difference on this. #IL13
@demiforillinois.bsky.social
My team worked around the clock this year, helping folks in #IL13! In 2025, we resolved more than 1,000 cases and returned more than $2.2 million to constituents from the federal government – a record in my 3 years in office! #YearInReview
For my birthday, get more peopleto follow @dylanthomasblaha.bsky.social, a Democratic candidate for Congress in #IL13.
He's challenging an incumbent Democrat from the Left and he's getting a respectable number of endorsements.
@dylanthomasblaha.bsky.social is challenging Budzinski from the Left in #IL13.
Maybe, help him?
