Dr. Sapan Shah Files for Republican Primary

Dr. Sapan Shah, candidate seeking the Republican nomination for IL-10, today submitted 2,203 signatures to qualify for the Republican ballot for the Primary on March 20th, 2018. This vital process brings Dr. Shah one step closer to bringing common sense and real-world experience to Washington.

Having submitted three times more signatures than is required shows incredible support for Dr. Shah’s campaign.

“All across the 10th District people have been extraordinarily receptive to my message,” said Dr. Shah. “They join me in being sick of entrenched politicians and the status quo. We need to bring real change to Washington, which starts by electing citizen legislators with real-world experience instead of more career politicians. Today is another example of the breadth and depth of support for our common sense message.”
