In a May 24 Facebook post, Rep. Tim Butler (R-Springfield) announced new endorsements for his campaign to represent the 95th District.

"I am honored to be endorsed by so many current and former legislators from our area, including all five Sangamon County Republican legislators I've served with during my four terms such as Senator Steve McClure (R-Jacksonville) and State Representative Sandy Hamilton (R-Springfield),” Butler posted.

"To also have the support of those who have paved the way for me because of their previous service -- former legislators like Irv Smith, Karen Hasara, Larry Bomke, and Duane Noland -- means so much. Thank you to State Representative Avery Bourne (R-Litchfield) and former Rep. Raymond Poe for your kind remarks in our announcement release. I am the only candidate who lives in the @New95th and I truly appreciate all the support and endorsements!” Butler posted.

Butler announced his intention to run for the 95th District in January. He expressed his goals in a video on Jan. 10 in a Facebook post.

Butler was also recently endorsed by the Illinois Farm Bureau's ACTIVATOR. "State Representative Tim Butler of Springfield is the endorsed candidate for Illinois' 95th State House district," the group posted on Facebook. "During his time in office, Butler has been a strong supporter of Illinois farmers. Vote Tim Butler on or before June 28!"
