IL-17: CQ: Another Once-Competitive Dem Seat Seen As Safer
Another Dem seat once seen as competitive has slipped into the safe category. CQ Politics says that it is now likely that Dem Phil Hare will "prevail over Republican Andrea Zinga by a decisive margin" for the seat of retiring Dem Rep. Lane Evans, and has changed its rating of the race from "Leans Democratic" to the less competitive "Democrat Favored." CQ: "Hare surely will rack up a big margin in Rock Island County, which includes the cities of Rock Island and Moline and has a strong organized labor presence, and in other urbanized areas in the district such as Galesburg and parts of Springfield and Decatur." CQ's full Illinois roundup here.
