CHICAGO - Several candidates are competing for the Democratic nomination in the 9th Congressional District, which includes parts of Chicago's North Side and northern suburbs.
Among the large field of Democratic candidates are three frontrunners who are slated to join Fox Chicago on Wednesday, Feb. 25, for a live debate about the major issues facing the country.
Evanston Mayor Daniel Biss, State Sen. Laura Fine, and Kat Abughazaleh are the leading candidates in the primary race to replace longtime U.S. Rep. Jan Schakowsky, who has served in Congress for more than 25 years.
