Last night Robin Kelly took her first step to becoming the next Illinois State Treasurer.

Her proven record of success and integrity earned her the Democratic nomination in yesterday’s primary. Robin served as the representative for the Illinois 38th legislative district in the State Assembly before being appointed to Chief of Staff of the current State Treasurer.

Throughout her time serving in public office, Robin has continuously proven herself as a strong advocate for the Illinois citizens. Congratulations, Robin, on a well-deserved victory.

She will face Republican Senator Dan Rutherford in November’s general election.
