Decision Desk HQ projected former Rep. Melissa Bean to win the Democratic primary for the Chicago-area seat held by Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi, the outlet reported.
Bean previously represented a version of the 8th Congressional District before losing a bid for a fourth House term in 2010.
The projected primary victory positions Bean to challenge for the seat currently held by Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-Ill.).
Decision Desk HQ reported the projection. Further details on vote totals or statements from campaigns were not included in the projection report.
