U.S. Rep. Danny Davis bested four challengers in the 7th Congressional District Democratic primary.
Kina Collins, from left, and City Treasurer Melissa Conyears-Ervin are challenging U.S. Rep. Danny Davis in the 7th Congressional District Democratic primary. Vying for a 15th term in Congress, U.S. Rep. Danny Davis defeated four challengers Tuesday in the 7th Congressional District Democratic primary, according to The Associated Press.
Another challenger, second-term Chicago City Treasurer Melissa Conyears-Ervin, a former Davis ally, was dogged by allegations of ethical misconduct at City Hall. The Board of Ethics in November found probable cause that Conyears-Ervin had violated the city ethics code by firing two employees who’d complained about her conduct.
“If those individuals are willing to stand and say that you are doing and have done a good job, it matters not what anybody else says, it matters not what anybody else believes,” Davis said at a campaign event earlier this month.
