2022 Election: Illinois House District 63

With Tuesday’s election, voters in McHenry County selected candidates for two state senate and five house districts.

Several McHenry County, state and federal races are on the ballot in this year's midterm, including the governor's race and an amendment to the Illinois Constitution.

The race for Illinois governor won’t be the only one on Tuesday’s ballot. With the redrawing of the state’s political maps, the make-up of the entire McHenry County Board and both the U.S. and Illinois houses of representatives will be determined, along several other races.

More “school choice” and a voucher system is something state Rep. Steve Reick, R-Woodstock, would like to see Illinois move toward while his Democratic opponent, Brian Meyers of Crystal Lake, supports robust public school funding.

Candidates for the Republican Party across local, state and federal races, were in Crystal Lake on Wednesday to meet with residents and talk about the state of Illinois, the SAFE-T Act and other issues.
