In a Facebook Live video, the activists screamed at Londrigan and challenged her to debate Stefanie Smith, a lesser-known candidate running in the primary race in Illinois’ 13th Congressional district. And Smith said this was a "non-violent" protest, stopping her car and yelling and screaming at her???



One agitator yelled, “Will you support Medicare for All?”

Londrigan participated in a candidate forum with Smith two weeks ago in Champaign, and pledged to support her if she won. Smith declined to say if she would support Londrigan if she won.

So far, according to federal campaign finance records, Smith has raised $3,593 from two Illinois donors, and another $3,201 from donors who gave less than the individual reporting threshold of $200. No polling data is available in the primary race.

Smith’s campaign has not yet responded directly to requests for comment about the incident, but she posted a response to her campaign’s Facebook page.

“It was a non-violent protest,” Smith wrote, “and if Betsy can’t handle a few people demanding a conversation about the life or death issues facing many of is [sic] in this district, she should quit now because she will not be able to handle Davis and Trump.”
