Illinois Republican Wants to Take On His Party

Former Rep. Bob Dold (R-IL) “wants to get back to Congress — to take on his own party,” The Hill reports.

“Dold is attempting a comeback against former Rep. Brad Schneider (D-IL), who he lost to by less than 2,500 votes in a heavily Democratic suburban Chicago district last fall. The self-described moderate hoping to win his rematch by painting himself as the more bipartisan of the two — and the one more willing to take on members of his conference.”
