Lawmakers and candidates from all four of the Illinois House districts that reach into Champaign County will be in Urbana Thursday evening (July 26) to talk about long-term senior care and retirement issues.

Dan Caulkins and Cindy Cunningham are running for Illinois House seats in different districts and for different parties. But they both say they want to promote cooperation, not gridlock, after winning their respective primary races on Tuesday.

Cynthia “Cindy” Cunningham is one of the two Democrats (the other is the Rev. Frank McCullough, Jr. of Danville) competing in the March 20 primary to be their party’s nominee in the 104th Illinois House District, which includes Danville and Rantoul.
