According to The Cook County Album of Genealogy, Francis Schweinfurth Sr., who had emigrated with his family from Germany, was a factor in creating the Illinois Republican Party. he was known as devout Lutheran and a businessman in Chicago. He fought as an officer in the Civil War on the Union side. As a first lieutenant, he was captured and held prisoner of war at Chickamauga. He, with his brother, operated a bread baking business in Chicago. He is buried at Rosehill Cemetery in Chicago. </p><p>The early Illinois Republican Party enjoyed many members from commerce who shared the vision of Illinois generally, and Chicago in particular, as a gateway to the Western frontier of the United States. The early party members quickly identified their shared anti-slavery sentiment which further differentiated them from the older parties based on the East Coast. Many early members of the party failed to gain statewide office or election to the United States Congress due to this anti-slavery view, although this early position of the party in Illinois would later propel several candidates to prominent office, including the Governorship of Illinois won by <a href="/wiki/Richard_Yates_(19th_century_politician)" class="mw-redirect" title="Richard Yates (19th century politician)">Richard Yates</a>, and in the mid-1850s, the election of former Chicago Mayor <a href="/wiki/James_Hutchinson_Woodworth" title="James Hutchinson Woodworth">James Hutchinson Woodworth</a> to one term in the United States House of Representatives. </p><p>On May 9–10, 1860 the Illinois Republican State Convention was held in <a href="/wiki/Decatur,_Illinois" title="Decatur, Illinois">Decatur</a>. At this convention <a href="/wiki/Abraham_Lincoln" title="Abraham Lincoln">Abraham Lincoln</a> received his first endorsement for president of the United States.

Until 1932, Republicans had virtually complete control over Illinois politics. </p><p>From 1932 to 1994, Republicans still usually had more control over Illinois politics, although Democrats still had a presence in the state and many noted Democratic politicians, most notably <a href="/wiki/Adlai_Stevenson_II" title="Adlai Stevenson II">Adlai Stevenson II</a> (lost to Republican <a href="/wiki/Dwight_Eisenhower" class="mw-redirect" title="Dwight Eisenhower">Dwight Eisenhower</a> twice), came from Illinois.

Illinois rapidly became more Democratic in the second half of the 1990s and early 2000s.
