Albert J. Salvi III (born April 25, 1960) is an American attorney, politician, and former radio talk show host. He served as a member of the Illinois House of Representatives and was a Republican nominee for the United States Senate and Illinois Secretary of State.

Career

[edit]

In 1986, Salvi ran for the United States House of Representatives in Illinois's 19th congressional district, but lost to Terry L. Bruce.[3]

Salvi was elected to the Illinois House of Representatives in 1992, representing the 52nd district, which was based in western Lake County.[4] He served as Representative until 1996, when he left his seat to run for the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by two-term Democrat Paul Simon.[4] In his Senate run, Salvi defeated Lieutenant Governor Bob Kustra in the Republican primary, but was defeated by U.S. Representative Dick Durbin in the general election.[5]

In 1998, Salvi ran for Illinois Secretary of State. He defeated State Representative Robert W. Churchill in the Republican primary, but lost in the general election to Democrat Jesse White.[6][7]

Salvi has donated to several Republican Party candidates, including Donald Trump, Rick Santorum, Herman Cain, Dan Quayle, Peter Roskam, and Phil Crane.[8]

He was the host of The Al Salvi Show, an issues-oriented radio talk show which aired on WKRS AM 1220 in Waukegan, Illinois, when this station aired a news-talk format.[9] In 2006, he left his radio show on WKRS to further pursue his legal career. He was replaced in the 10 AM to noon time slot by Bruno Behrend, another WKRS radio host. In 2007, Salvi temporarily returned to WKRS and was on the air two days a week.[citation needed]
