Illinois primary 2022: See how all the candidates answered our questions — plus who the Tribune Editorial Board endorsed

On June 28, Illinois voters will head to the polls to select their party nominees in the Illinois 2022 primary.

Voters will cast their ballot for every statewide office, as well as one U.S. Senate seat, two seats on the Illinois Supreme Court, all 17 of Illinois’ representatives in Congress, every state senator and representative in the General Assembly, and scores of county and judicial offices.

These primary elections set the stage for the general election on Nov. 8.
