CCBA member Jason Barickman Elected as State Rep

Champaign County GOP Jason Barickman will replace State Representative Shane Cultra in the Illinois General Assembly.

A group of GOP County Chairmen from the 105th Illinois House District unanimously supported Barickman to fill the soon-to-be vacant seat created by Cultra’s anticipated departure to the Illinois Senate.

Cultra won re-election earlier this month to the 105 House District, but will begin filling Dan Rutherford’s remaining two years in the Senate starting January 9th, the same day Barickman expects to take office. Rutherford said Cultra’s the right choice for the job.
