Lipinski was renominated in the primary election, but in August announced his intention to withdraw from the race, just two weeks before the deadline for replacing a candidate on the ballot. Four days later, the district's ward and township committeemen &ndash; including Lipinski himself as well as Mayor Daley's brother [[John P. Daley|John]] and [[Illinois House of Representatives|Illinois House]] Speaker [[Michael Madigan]] &ndash; met to choose a replacement; Lipinski nominated his son [[Dan Lipinski|Dan]], an assistant professor at the [[University of Tennessee]], and he was approved without opposition despite not having lived in Illinois since 1989. In his initial campaign, the younger Lipinski stated that his policies made him "not really that different from" his father, and indicated that he would oppose [[same-sex marriage in the United States|same-sex marriage]] as well as abortion except when the mother's life was at stake. True to the district's heritage, he identified Reagan as his political hero.<ref>Barone, et al.
