Lincoln and Churchill defeated in 8th District Republican primary

I couldn't resist the headline. David McSweeney is the winner in the Northwest Suburban 8th Congressional District. He'll face first-term rep Melissa Bean in November.

From the Daily Herald:

With 73 percent of precincts reporting the vote totals were as follows:

• 38 percent for McSweeney

• 30 percent for Kathy Salvi

• 25 percent for Robert Churchill, a state senator.

• 4 percent for Aaron Lincoln, a Wauconda attorney

• 2 percent for Gurnee anti-tax activist Ken Arnold

•1 percent for James Mitchell, a former Lake County Board member
