Keep or merge to United_States_House_of_Representatives_elections_in_Illinois,_2010#District_17. I see no problem with an article about a single race, if it meets WP:GNG. Bearian (talk) 22:44, 11 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Keep No policy based reason for deleting the article has been advanced. The topic is notable and the referencing is fine. It is OK to have statewide articles on several Congressional races, or individual articles if editors are so motivated. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 20:16, 15 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
