The incumbent was Republican Darin LaHood, who had represented the district since 2015. He was elected with 69% of the vote in the September 10, 2015 special election to fill the remainder of the term of former Congressman Aaron Schock. Aaron Schock, who had represented the district since 2009 resigned March 31, 2015 due to controversy over his spending. The district had a PVI of R+11.

Republican primary

Mark Zalcman, a Normal, Illinois attorney, planned to challenge Schock in the Republican primary election in March 2016. Zalcman promoted a platform based on his Christian Gospel-centered faith and values.[117] Zalcman declined to run in the special election due to a shortened period to obtain the necessary signatures to qualify for the ballot.[118] Zalcman announced that he would focus on the 2016 primary instead.[118] Zalcman did not file for this seat, leaving LaHood unopposed for the Republican nomination.
