Who is my U.S. representative in IL-07?

Captured 2026-07-15 02:36:26 UTC Model Claude Source page
Right now (as of July 2026), your U.S. Representative for IL-07 is still Danny K. Davis (Democrat) — he's serving out the remainder of his current term.

A bit of context: Davis is retiring at the end of his term and not seeking re-election, ending nearly 30 years in the seat. La Shawn Ford won the Democratic primary on March 17, 2026, and Chad Koppie won the Republican primary that same day. Since IL-07 has a heavily Democratic lean (Cook PVI of D+34, making it the 7th most Democratic district nationally), the Democratic nominee is heavily favored in the November 3, 2026 general election — but Davis remains your sitting representative until the new term begins in January 2027.
