An Interview with Illinois 2022 Senate Hopeful Allison Salinas


On the evening of March 19, 2021, I had the chance to interview Allison Salinas. Mrs. Salinas has announced that she is throwing her hat into the political arena and is running as a Republican. She is hoping to be the victor in the Republican primary of 2022 and ultimately is looking to unseat Illinois Democrat Senator Tammy Duckworth in the 2022 U.S. Senate Race.
My immediate takeaway from the interview is that Mrs. Salinas is very approachable and available to talk to anyone about her views. (after all she agreed to speak to me)
I don’t want to say too much about her views or platform because I believe they are best told by the candidate themselves and encourage everyone interested in the 2022 Senate race to listen to the interview (The player is embedded in this article at the top and bottom)
In a nutshell she is Pro-Life, Pro 2nd Amendment, Pro School Choice, Pro Immigration Reform and Pro Healthcare Reform.
Most importantly she has interesting ideas, listens to what people say, and really wants voters in Illinois to feel like they have a voice again.
