New poll shows Eric Sorensen in deep trouble

A new poll for Illinois’ 17th Congressional District shows Joe Biden and Eric Sorensen are in deep trouble.

Here’s the bottom line:

• Joe Biden is up by just 1 percent in a district he won by nearly 10 percent in 2020.
• Eric Sorensen is in a 14 percent deficit when voters are given an informed ballot with the barrage of negative headlines about his extreme record and past statements.
• Judge Joe McGraw is in a prime position to flip this district red.

“Joe Biden and Eric Sorensen’s extreme policies are wildly out of touch with the working class people of Illinois. Sorensen’s extreme stances have finally been exposed to voters, and it’s clear they are not happy. Judge Joe McGraw will bring common sense back to Illinois, safeguard communities and stand up for the values of Illinoisans.” – NRCC Spokesman Mike Marinella
