Republican Jennifer Davis is running for Illinois’ 8th Congressional District seat, emphasizing her technology and India business experience alongside immigration and technology proposals. The profile also describes her campaign activity and her praise for the incumbent, Raja Krishnamoorthi.
Davis, a first-time candidate, says her experience building a technology company with operations in India informs her priorities, which include affordability, government debt, emerging technology and a proposed “Digital Dome” to protect families from online threats. She also supports a stronger pathway to citizenship for people seeking to work in the United States, while expressing support for tighter border enforcement and disagreement with parts of President Donald Trump’s immigration approach.
Davis is running for the seat Krishnamoorthi is leaving and will face Democrat Melissa Bean, a former representative. She has met with mayors, knocked on doors, made calls and is conducting a bicycle tour along district boundaries to draw attention to gerrymandering. Davis said Krishnamoorthi represented the district well and that she hopes to emulate what he did effectively.
