Richmond and Rea undecided on Illinois House leadership
In the Illinois House some Democrats, including Bruce Richmond of Murphysboro and James Rea, keep options open for party leadership as the chamber becomes a minority. Richmond may back Douglas Kane, a downstater candidate, while Rea weighs an emergent speaker emeritus idea for William Redmond, whose salary would remain at leader level.
