Illinoisans Who Ran for President—And Lost presented by Dr. Jacob K. Freifeld, Illinois and Midwest Studies Research Historian, Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library & Museum, and Forrest G. Keaton, Esq., Historian, Attorney and Partner, Rammelkamp Bradney.

The COVID-19 pandemic has delayed or forced the cancellation of many activities across the state and nation, including the election of ISHS directors and advisers, usually conducted at our annual meeting in April. Because we don't know how the pandemic will affect our ability to gather collectively in the coming months, the ISHS board has decided to conduct the election while we are social distancing.
