Kat Abu announced yesterday that she's running for Congress in the Illinois 9th Archived Message Posted by larue33 on March 26, 2025, 11:56:25, in reply to "March politics thread" That would be against Jan Schakowsky, if she decides to run again (which she really shouldn't), I doubt that Abu could pull that off. I don't know that area, but I assume if Schakowsky doesn't run multiple candidates would step up. Internet celebrities running for office is probably our future, though. Of the politicians I've met, Schakowsky probably comes closest to being a real person. On the other hand, her husband is a real sleaze, so maybe she's just better than most at faking it.
