Dr. Eric Wallace is running for the open 40th Illinois State Senate seat due to the retirement of progressive anti-life, anti-family Toi Hutchinson, who stepped down to become Illinois’ new pot czar. Wallace is a man with unmovable integrity and a steadfast determination to rebuild the moral fiber of our state and culture – qualities we need more of in Springfield. This district includes areas of Chicago Heights, Olympia Fields, Park Forest, Manhattan and even Peotone, Bourbonnais, Kankakee and Herscher.
