Race Analysis

Richard Durbin is heavily favored to retain his seat for a third term. Durbin previously served 14 years in the House before winning election to the Senate in 1996.

With Barack Obama, the state\'s other senator, at the top of the ticket, Durbin, the Senate Majority Whip, should have no trouble against wealthy physician Steve Sauerberg.
