Report: Former Lake County Sheriff Mark Curran to run for U.S. Senate

Former Lake County Sheriff Mark Curran says he'll seek the 2020 GOP nomination for U.S. Senate, the Chicago Tribune is reporting.

The three-term sheriff from Libertyville was challenging the results of the November election before conceding Saturday, two days into a four-day recount his legal team had requested.
