“I don’t care where he lives, he should’ve gone against Kinz again instead of going for the open 14th. Catalina Lauf would have won that seat. Oberweis did but was robbed.”

Maybe Jim Oberweiss would have beaten Adam Kinzinger in the IL-16 GOP primary (if he did, he’d definitely win the general in that safely GOP CD), and maybe hottie Catalina Lauf would have defeated Lauren “DJ Lance Rock” Underwood in the general in the swing IL-14 (I definitely would have liked her chances), but that’s over and done. Looking forward to 2022, Lauf already has announced her candidacy against Kinzinger in IL-16:
While we don’t know for certain what IL-16 will look like, Democrats likely will make it even more heavily GOP in redistricting in order to prop up Bustos and Underwood in their marginal districts. I am confident that Kinzinger has put his foot in his mouth once too often and would get trounced by Lauf in a one-on-one race; my only concern is that two other Republicabs also have declared so far and others are likely to
jump in, so Kinzinger might be able to skate with a plurality of 30% or less.
ILLINOIS losing one house seat due to census
If the population loss is in Chicago, you might have 2 incumbent Dems in one seat
Likely won’t effect the suburban seats on No. ILL
