* Incumbent
Lauren Underwood, a nurse who worked in President Barack Obama’s administration, sees an opening to flip a suburban and exurban district that has long supported Republicans. The incumbent, Representative Randy Hultgren, won by 19 points in 2016 and has a conservative voting record. Ms. Underwood, a self-identified progressive who grew up in suburban Chicago, has emphasized health care on the campaign trail. Mr. Hultgren’s seat is one of several that national Republicans are worried about losing because of President Trump’s lack of popularity in well-educated suburbs.
