== List of members representing the district ==

2006 Republican candidate for Governor, Judy Baar Topinka, and GOP candidate for Cook County Board President Tony Peraica both handily won the district in 2006, although both lost in the state- and countywide (respectively) count. 2008 Dan Seals, who had previously run against Mark Kirk in 2006, defeated Clinton Advisor Jay Footlik for the 2008 Democratic nomination. Dave Kalbfleisch received the Green Party nomination, but was removed from the ballot by the Illinois State Board of Elections. Independent candidate Allan Stevo was also nominated. Mark Kirk defeated Dan Seals in their rematch from 2006 by 54% to 46%, thus winning a fifth term in the House. 2010 The Republican Party nominee, Robert Dold, won against the Democratic Party nominee, Dan Seals. 2012 Robert Dold no longer lives in the redrawn district, but said he would move into the district if he won re-election. Candidates for the Democratic nomination were: Ilya Sheyman, a community organizer from Waukegan, Brad Schneider, a business consultant, John Tree, a business executive and Colonel in the Air Force Reserve, and Vivek Bavda, an intellectual property attorney. In the March 20, 2012, primary, Brad Schneider won the Democratic nomination. Schneider defeated Dold in the general election in November. 2014 Brad Schneider, the incumbent, was selected to be the Democratic nominee, and Robert Dold was once again selected to be the Republican nominee. Dold won the election with just over 50% of the vote. 2016 Brad Schneider defeated Highland Park Mayor Nancy Rotering for the Democratic nomination on March 15. Democrat Brad Schneider defeated Republican Robert Dold by nearly 5% (14,000 votes), the largest victory margin in Illinois's 10th Congressional district since redistricting. 2018 Brad Schneider, the incumbent, defeated his republican challenger Douglas R. Bennett with 65.6% of the vote. There were three Republican candidates who ran in the primary: Bennett of Deerfield, who is a computer consultant and vice chairman of the West Deerfield Township Republican Organization, Libertyville physician and business owner Sapan Shah, and Jeremy Wynes of Highland Park. Robert Dold declined to run for a fifth time. On March 20, Douglas Bennett narrowly beat Wynes and Shah in the primary. 2020 Incumbent representative Brad Schneider faced two Democratic primary challengers in 2020. Progressive activist Andrew Wang was the first to announce a challenge to Schneider, followed shortly by fellow progressive Adam Broad. After Wang dropped out and threw his support to Broad, Broad fell short of qualifying for the ballot and mounted a write-in campaign. Broad ultimately received less than 1% of the primary vote. In the general election, which was held on November 3, 2020, Schneider defeated Republican challenger Valerie Ramirez Mukherjee, earning nearly two-thirds of the vote. 2022 2024 ==See also==
