2 of the contenders to replace jan schakowsky got tear gassed, i got body slammed.
dan biss, jan’s endorsed candidate, current mayor of evanston was there. he’s been very, very vocal on this. there an ‘influencer’ also running. she’s the 1 who got roughed up.
a couple of the ppl running to replace durbin were also there- julia stratton, current lt gov, and robin kelly, current rep il 2.

there’s been a crowd there every damn day.
