Mike Bost

Incumbent Republican U.S. Rep. Mike Bost, R-Murphysboro, has won his bid for re-election in Illinois’ 12th Congressional District.

At least 15,400 people in the southern Illinois 12th Congressional District are enrolled in the Affordable Care Act. And nearly 20,000 use the Marketplace to buy insurance in the 13th Congressional District. Voters will have to decide whether they trust Republican lawmakers to come up with a replacement for the ACA, or if it’s safer to elect Democrats who have vowed to protect and improve the existing act.
