DeKalb, IL – WNIJ continues our series on northern Illinois Congressional Districts with a look at Districts 17 & 10. WNIJ predicts District 17 will go to incumbent Democrat Phil Hare. Why are we so certain a month before the election? Because Hare has no opponent. District 10, however, IS contested...and it's a tossup. Dan Klefstad discusses these races with NIU political scientist Matt Streb.
