Second Illinois Independent U.S. House Candidate Announces for 2016

Bill Fraser will run as an independent candidate in 2016 for U.S. House in the Illinois 8th district. See this story. The 8th district in in the Chicago suburbs and now is represented by Democrat Tammy Duckworth.

Earlier this year, independent David Gill announced he would petition for U.S. House in the Illinois 13th district.

No independent candidates for U.S. House qualified in Illinois in 2014. The state has the third most difficult petition requirement for independent candidates for U.S. House in the nation, after Georgia and North Carolina. Fraser will benefit from the fact that turnout in 2014 in Illinois was quite low; he will need 7,705 valid signatures.
