In this May 15, 2014 photo, Illinois Rep. Sam Yingling, D-Hainesville, speaks to lawmakers during a session at the state Capitol in Springfield, Ill. With all 71 Democratic members up for re-election, House Speaker Michael Madigan vote count has been affected by the combination of having a half dozen members facing vulnerable re-election bids in swing districts, and others who made pledges that they’d refuse to make the state’s temporary increase permanent. Four members, state Reps. Yingling, Marty Moylan, Fred Crespo, and Michelle Mussman, are among House Republicans’ top targets in November. (AP Photo/Seth Perlman)
