Cook County Commissioner and former Chicago mayoral candidate Jesus "Chuy" Garcia won the Democratic primary in Illinois' 4th Congressional District on March 20, 2018.[1]

District 4 Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D), who announced his retirement on November 28, 2017, endorsed Garcia in the race to succeed him.[2] Garcia also picked up endorsements from U.S. Sen. and 2016 presidential candidate Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), the Chicago Sun-Times, and progressive groups such as Democracy for America and the Sanders-affiliated Our Revolution.

Garcia faced two other candidates—housing nonprofit founder Sol Flores and police officer Richard Gonzalez—in the March 20 Democratic primary. Flores earned national attention in February 2018 for a campaign ad that referenced her experience with childhood sexual abuse.[3] She had the backing of the Chicago Tribune, EMILY's List, and U.S. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand's (D-N.Y.) Off the Sidelines PAC in the Democratic primary.

Top candidates

The candidates below have been identified by Ballotpedia as the top candidates in the race based on funds raised, endorsements, and polling.

Democratic Party Sol Flores (D)

Sol Flores.png

Flores is the founder of La Casa Norte: an organization that provides housing and services to homeless families, single parents, victims of domestic violence, and abandoned youth. She has served on the board of directors at the Latino Policy Forum, The Chicago Low Income Housing Trust Fund, Hispanic Housing Development Corporation, and Kuumba Lynx. She has also served as an appointed member of the City of Chicago Zoning Board of Appeals.[9]

Flores received an endorsement from EMILY's List on December 21, 2017. She has based her campaign on her childhood experience being raised by a single mother as part of a larger Puerto Rican immigrant family. According to her campaign website, she "was taught that 'Where one can eat, 10 can eat,' and that you should always invite people to your table and always be generous." Flores stated that this experience has been influential in her bid for Congress.[10]

Democratic Party Jesus Garcia (D)

Chuy Garcia.jpeg

Prior to running for Congress, Jesus "Chuy" Garcia served as a commissioner for Cook County, where he was first elected in 2010. In 2015, he challenged Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel (D) in his re-election bid. Garcia made it to a run-off against Emanuel, where he was defeated by about 12 points. Garcia served in the Illinois State Senate from 1993 to 1999 and as a Chicago alderman from 1986 to 1992.

The Huffington Post identified Garcia as a progressive Democrat with more liberal policy positions than Luis Gutierrez, a supporter of Rahm Emanuel and Hillary Clinton (D). Despite this, Gutierrez endorsed Garcia when he announced his retirement. Garcia also had the backing of national progressive leader U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.). Sanders first endorsed Garcia in his 2015 run against Mayor Emanuel and Garcia endorsed Sanders in his 2016 presidential run against Clinton. Sanders endorsed Garcia's congressional bid shortly after he announced he was running in November 2017.[11]

Political analysis of election outcome

After the election, party leaders and journalists assessed the causes and consequences of Garcia's primary win. A common topic was Garcia's ascendence as a leader in state politics.

Garcia's ascendence in state politics

Nick Blumberg, WTTW

"Tuesday’s primary election could have a lasting impact on the state’s two major political parties.

Joe Berrios, one of the last of the old-school machine Democrats, will soon be out of his job as Cook County assessor. Jesus 'Chuy' Garcia not only got elected to Congress, but scored other victories with the coalition of young progressives he’s helped lead...

On the Democratic side, Chuy Garcia had a good night. Not only did he get elected in his Congressional primary to succeed U.S. Rep. Luis Gutierrez and see progressive Fritz Kaegi topple Berrios, his chosen successor won her primary for Garcia’s seat on the county board. And state lawmaker Dan Burke, brother of powerful Ald. Ed Burke, was defeated by young progressive Aaron Ortiz."[12]

Bill Ruthhart and Joe Mahr, Chicago Tribune

"The night symbolized the arrival of Garcia’s expanded influence on the Chicago political stage.

Garcia declared victory for his slate of three candidates — 28-year-old Alma Anaya to succeed him on the County Board, 37-year-old Beatriz Frausto-Sandoval for circuit judge and 26-year-old Aaron Ortiz for state representative. An Ortiz victory over state Rep. Dan Burke would hold the largest significance as it would mark a substantial blow to the Burke family’s 65-year political dynasty in the 14th Ward.

A jubilant Garcia took to the stage with a broom in hand to symbolize his slate’s sweep."[13]

Carol Marin and Don Moseley, NBC 5 Chicago

"But for political junkies, there may be an even bigger story than the gubernatorial race. Call it the winds of change, led by Hispanics like Cook County Commissioner Jesus 'Chuy' Garcia and progressives including the Bernie Sanders Our Revolution.

Better yet, call it a political earthquake.

Out is Joe Berrios as Cook County Assessor. As head of the Cook County Democratic Party, Berrios could not rally his troops to defeat newcomer Fritz Kaegi.

Berrios won just 23 of Chicago’s 50 wards.

And speaking of Chicago wards, the other earthquake: Chicago’s most powerful alderman, Ed Burke, just barely delivered his 14th Ward for his brother Dan, who ultimately lost re-election to the statehouse. Just 62 votes separated Dan Burke and 26-year-old Aaron Ortiz in his brother's 14th Ward. Ortiz had the strong support of Chuy Garcia and won, as Garcia did in his bid for Congress."[14]

Noteworthy events

Gutierrez retirement

U.S. Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D) announced his retirement and endorsement of Chuy Garcia six days before the December 4 filing deadline. The Huffington Post suggested that he may have announced his retirement on short notice to limit the number of candidates who could enter the Democratic primary.[11]

The Huffington Post also noted that Gutierrez may have endorsed Garcia to ensure that he would not run against Chicago Mayor and Gutierrez ally Rahm Emanuel (D) in the 2019 Chicago mayoral race. Garcia challenged Emanuel in the 2015 Chicago mayoral race. According to Micah Uetricht, associate editor of the left-leaning magazine Jacobin, "Anyone who thinks more than 5 seconds about how this whole deal went down can’t help but realize things smell a little fishy."[11]

Garcia told the Huffington Post that Gutierrez had told him that he was going to resign and that he would not have done so unless Garcia ran to replace him. He said, "With respect to the process, there is no quid pro quo. There are no pre-conditions for it. It’s not nepotism because it is not a relative handing something down to another relative."[11]

Chicago Alderman Carlos Ramirez-Rosa, who subsequently withdrew from the race, said of the Garcia endorsement, "If I were the retiring congressman, it’s not how I would have handled it. As the Democratic Party, we’ve learned that we benefit when we have open and contested primaries."[11]

District analysis

See also: FiveThirtyEight's elasticity scores

The 2017 Cook Partisan Voter Index for this district was D+33, meaning that in the previous two presidential elections, this district's results were 33 percentage points more Democratic than the national average. This made Illinois' 4th Congressional District the 19th most Democratic nationally.[26]

FiveThirtyEight's September 2018 elasticity score for states and congressional districts measured "how sensitive it is to changes in the national political environment." This district's elasticity score was 1.01. This means that for every 1 point the national political mood moved toward a party, the district was expected to move 1.01 points toward that party.[27]
