A Democratic Party primary takes place on March 17, 2026, in Illinois' 8th Congressional District to determine which Democratic candidate will run in the district's general election on November 3, 2026.

Candidate filing deadline	Primary election	General election
November 3, 2025	March 17, 2026	November 3, 2026

A primary election is an election in which registered voters select a candidate that they believe should be a political party's candidate for elected office to run in the general election. They are also used to choose convention delegates and party leaders. Primaries are state-level and local-level elections that take place prior to a general election. In Illinois, state law provides for a closed primary where a voter must be affiliated with a party to vote in that party's primary. However, voters state their affiliation at the polls and any voter may change their affiliation on the day of the primary. A voter's eligibility to vote a party's ballot may be challenged.

For information about which offices are nominated via primary election, see this article.

This is one of 51 open races for the U.S. House of Representatives this year in which an incumbent is not running for re-election. Across the country, 21 Democrats and 30 Republicans are not running for re-election. In 2024, 45 incumbents — 24 Democrats and 21 Republicans — did not seek re-election.

Yasmeen Bankole

Party: Democratic Party

Incumbent: No

Submitted Biography:  "I am a lifelong public servant, with deep roots in the Northwest Suburbs of Chicago. The child of a librarian, I worked at the Schaumburg Township District Library for over a decade. Serving Schaumburg area residents was my first foray into public service. Most recently, I served as Regional Director to U.S. Senator Dick Durbin for nearly 6 years where I oversaw the Senator’s affairs and congressional outreach throughout Northern IL. Previously, I also served as a congressional aide in the Office of Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi. I am currently an elected Trustee in the Village of Hanover Park. In 2021, upon becoming elected, I became the only Nigerian-American elected official in the state of Illinois and, at 27-years-old, the youngest elected trustee in the history of my village. Among my key accomplishments are the creation of the Water Bill Fee discount program, which has created utility bill savings for seniors and working families with limited incomes, and working with community stakeholders and organized labor to pass a Responsible Bidder Ordinance which ensures that taxpayer funds used for publicly funded projects only go to qualified contractors, protect union workers' rights and benefits, and keep them safe on the job."

---

Lowering costs and making life more affordable: Illinoisans are working harder than ever to pay the bills, keep a roof over their head, and support their kids, and it is getting harder. I’ll fight to: Strengthen our essential national social programs, including Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. Put more money in the pockets of middle class families by fighting to repeal the billionaire tax giveaways and lower taxes for working Illinoisans. Secure good-paying union jobs and protections and invest in apprenticeships and job training programs that put more money back in the pockets of working families. Advocate for the reversal of Trump tariffs, which make working families pay more, hurt small businesses, and cause economic upheaval.

---

Fighting for workers and organized labor: As an elected Trustee in the Village of Hanover Park, I supported pro-worker policies that ensure taxpayer funds used for publicly funded projects only go to qualified contractors, protect union workers' rights and benefits, and keep them safe on the job. In my role as a Regional Director for Senator Durbin, I worked hard to support legislation that protected union workers’ benefits and promoted safer working conditions. In Congress, I will co-sponsor the PRO Act, which would strengthen workers' rights to organize and bargain for better wages, benefits, and working conditions. We must also raise the minimum wage to $17 an hour and eliminate payroll loopholes like the tipped minimum wage.

---

Protecting Immigrants: As the daughter of immigrants, the fight for a fair and just immigration system is personal to me. It allowed so many people, like my parents, the chance at a life filled with possibility. After I won my election to the Hanover Park board in 2021, I was proud to introduce and pass a Welcoming City ordinance that reaffirms our commitment to the Illinois Trust Act. The current administration has weaponized our immigration system, circumventing due process and the rule of law to deport innocent people regardless of their legal status. In Congress, I will fight for a pathway to citizenship for all immigrants, work to streamline the immigration process to reduce unnecessary bureaucracy, and protect birthright citizenship.

Neil Khot

Party: Democratic Party

Incumbent: No

Submitted Biography:  "I was born in a small town in India and was raised by a single mother. In my 20s, I moved to America with 300 dollars and a dream of being able to start my own business. Now, I am proud to have my own business with over 200 employees in the 8th district and beyond. I am running for Congress, not as a career politician, but as an outsider who will bring fresh ideas to Washington."

---

The American Dream is out of reach for too many Americans, and I am running to change that. If elected, I will work to ensure that all Americans can reach their full potential with the skills necessary for well-paying jobs.

---

It is our duty to protect our senior citizens, like my own mother, from losing their healthcare or their social security. My biggest priority in Congress will be to protect Social Security and Medicare because they are not just welfare programs; they are America’s promise to our seniors.

---

I will always stand up to MAGA extremists. We must defend the rule of law, protect healthcare, support working families, and protect immigrants.

Kevin Morrison

Party: Democratic Party

Incumbent: No

Submitted Biography:  "I was born in Chicago and raised in Elk Grove Village, Illinois. I graduated from Conant High School in 2009. I attended DePaul University as an undergraduate, where I studied political science, environmental science, and LGBTQ studies, and graduated in 2013. In college I became an environmental activist, and went on to work on a number of local campaigns. I worked on Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign, and then began working for Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi. In 2018, I became the youngest ever, and first openly LGBTQ Commissioner, as well as the first Democrat to represent the 15th District when I was elected to the Cook County Board of Commissioners. In doing so, I defeated a twelve year incumbent who served as the Chairman of the Illinois Republican Party. I am currently serving my second term after my re-election in 2022. On the board, I spearheaded the creation of the Cook County Department of Mental and Behavioral Health, as well as the Cook County Small Business Source. I was a lead sponsor in the repeal of Cook County’s Wheel Tax, the creation of an annually renewing $100 million Disaster Relief Fund, the Residential Tenant and Landlord Ordinance, and making reproductive health a protected class for 5.2 million people. In 2024, I graduated with a Juris Doctorate from UIC Law School, and passed the BAR exam in February 2025. In May 2025, I was sworn in as an attorney, and one week later announced a bid for Congress."

Fight for Affordability: Too many families feel as if the American Dream is slipping away, yet Washington keeps delivering for the well-connected while working people get stuck with higher costs and fewer choices. Working people should be able to afford housing, put healthy food on the table, access high quality public education, send their kids to college, and access high-quality, affordable healthcare. Now more than ever, Congress must hold giant corporations accountable for jacking up prices and making our cost-of-living crisis worse. As Cook County Commissioner, I’ve proven how a pragmatic progressive can deliver for working families and communities, and I am ready to bring that same approach to Congress.

---

Stand Up to Trump: Donald Trump and his allies are tearing the Constitution to shreds. Right now, we need a fighter who will stand up for our democracy. I've already fought Trumpism as a Cook County commissioner, leading the fight to unmask and bar ICE from county buildings and defending due process. In Congress, I'll fight to rein in ICE, advance real immigration reform, and protect congressionally approved funding for critical programs. I'll stand up for Congress’s power of the purse and will champion legislation to strengthen voting rights and eliminate voter suppression. And I will continue to be a fierce defender of vulnerable populations, and will stand against any attempt to curtail the rights of marginalized communities.

---

Protect Our Rights: The people’s government should not serve the interests of wealthy insiders; it should serve the people. In Congress, I will fight to overturn Citizens United and get dark money out of politics by supporting publicly funded elections, fair limits on contributions, and real disclosure so voters know who’s trying to buy our government. I will also champion legislative efforts to crack down on profiteering and self-dealing through a ban on congressional stock trading, closing loopholes through family accounts, shell holdings and conflicted investments, strengthening ethics enforcement, and ending the revolving door to lobbying.

Dan Tully

Party: Democratic Party

Incumbent: No

Submitted Biography:  "A veteran, attorney, and former civil servant, Dan Tully is running for Congress because our constitution, our freedom, and our democracy are threatened by a president who doesn’t think the rules apply to him and by a Republican Congress that refuses to stand up to him. Dan’s parents were Cook County Hospital nurses who instilled in him the values of keeping your word and serving others. Their lessons, love, and support helped propel Dan from the western suburbs where he was raised to graduate from both Northwestern and the University of Chicago, earn his law degree from Stanford, and join the military. Dan served eight and a half years as a Judge Advocate in the U.S. Army Reserve, including over three and a half years on active duty. While deployed to Iraq, Dan advised commanders on operations to defeat ISIS. At Fort Bragg, Dan served in the headquarters of the Green Berets to facilitate intelligence investigations and supported the 82nd Airborne Division. Dan assisted in the Army’s efforts to accelerate planning for large-scale combat operations at Army Futures Command, and he also served in the military’s U.S. Indo-Pacific Command. Later, while working as a civil servant at the U.S. Department of Commerce, Dan continued the work of countering China’s influence in foreign markets. Dan took a stand by leaving the by leaving the administration that no longer enabled him to honor the oath he swore to support and defend our nation."

Uphold Our Constitution & Restore the Rule of Law: Our Democracy is under attack by Donald Trump and his cronies in Washington. I will work to end the politicization of the military, the abuses of power being carried out by the president, his cabinet officials and by extension - the Immigration and Custom Enforcement Agency (ICE). I will use my platform and position to fiercely promote fair and free elections across the country to ensure that the rule of law is upheld and protect fair representation in Congress.

---

Make the American Dream More Accessible: The Trump administration has rolled back progress on nearly every front – from our economy to trade agreements – leaving working Americans to shoulder the burden. Harmful tariffs have strained our international relationships and driven up the cost of living. Meanwhile, federal benefits and vital programs were suspended during government shutdowns, leaving countless families in limbo. While the wealthiest continue to thrive, everyday Americans are being priced out of the basic promise of the American Dream. I will fight to expand trade education and union membership, put money back into our schools, and support an equitable tax rate for the wealthiest in our country to pay their fair share

---

Promote Our Health & Safety: Healthcare is a human right. We need to have a robust universal healthcare system so no one has to worry about whether they can see a doctor or not. In Congress I will vote to enshrine women’s reproductive rights, and expanded community health systems so we can address long-standing systemic inequities.
