U.S. Rep. Danny Davis is being challenged by Kina Collins in the 7th Congressional District.
Kina Collins, 31, is challenging U.S. Rep. Danny Davis, 80, in the Democratic primary in the 7th Congressional District.
U.S. Rep. Danny Davis addresses the congregation at New Galilee Baptist Church during a campaign stop on May 29, 2022, in Chicago's Lawndale neighborhood. “I’m going to go back to Washington and tell the world I’m a Danny Davis Democrat!” Jeffries proclaimed. Challenger Kina Collins, left, campaigns door to door with her manager, Isabel Alter, on May 29, 2022, in Chicago's Galewood neighborhood.
In the last fundraising quarter, Collins outraised Davis — $127,570 to $66,840 — though Davis still maintained a cash-on-hand advantage of $543,981 to Collins’ $125,217.Nodding to 2022′s more competitive landscape, Davis supporter Anthony Oliver warned the crowd at the congressman’s South Loop rally that Collins is a serious challenger.
What exactly Davis has brought back to the 7th district has been an issue over the years. Many of the neighborhoods and west suburbs have struggled for generations, long before Davis took office, but improvement also has been slow-going. Still, Collins and Davis often share similar messages on many issues. Both frequently decry Chicago’s gun violence. Noting that America is too loose with guns, Davis said his 15-year old grandson Javon Wilson“They had a swapping program where they swapped clothes with each other. ‘I’d wear your gym shoes for a week, you’d wear my jacket for a week.’ They had a little argument but one of the kids had a gun,” Davis said.
