Stay with FOX 32 Chicago on Tuesday night for live results and the latest updates from the 2022 Midterm Election campaign trail.

After months of primaries and campaign events, the midterm elections that will determine the balance of power in Washington and state capitals are finally here.

Illinois Gov. Pritzker is facing off against state Sen. Bailey in this year's race for governor. Democrats have had a supermajority control of the General Assembly for four years.

With Democrats’ supermajority control of the General Assembly, Gov. J.B. Pritzker has enjoyed four years of pushing through major initiatives beginning with an overdue $45 billion capital construction plan, a $15-an-hour minimum wage, legalized recreational marijuana while later reducing tens of billions of dollars in debt.

Illinois voters will decide this Election Day whether to remain with incumbent Gov. J.B. Pritzker or to choose a new route with Republican state Senator Darren Bailey. It is one of several high-profile races that will determine the future of politics in the Land of Lincoln.
