        Lauren Underwood is the youngest Black Rep in the history of House Reps. She's also a registered nurse who ran against 6 white guys, in a Red state and went on to win her seat with style, experience, charisma and chutzpah.pic.twitter.com/267f6mefzC

        IL is blue but we WERE a red district where Trump won by 5 & our previous rep (@RepHultgren) beat his last opponent by 19 pts. Counties that make up #IL14 were mostly red before but ALL voted blue this time. This was the work of a great campaign, countless activists & Dem party
