Description:State Sen. Toi Hutchinson has ended her bid to represent Illinois’ 2nd Congressional District. Hutchinson is now throwing her support behind former opponent, Robin Kelly. “Robin is a friend, and has captured momentum in pulling our community together. I am simply unwilling to risk playing a role going forward that could result in dividing our community at a time when we need unity more than ever,” Hutchinson said in a statement. (3:12)
