...Dr. David Gill, the Democratic candidate for the 13th Congressional District race in 2012, last week left his $127,739-a-year position with the Illinois Department of Public Health.

Gill said his resignation was effective March 1 and that he would "get back to full-time emergency medicine," working at hospitals in Normal, Gibson City and Alton.

Even though he was appointed assistant director of the public health department in May, he was never confirmed by the state Senate.

"I leave without any negative feelings. I think the people doing that work are making a sacrifice," he said. "As far as the family budget, to do right by my family, I needed to get back to the full-time practice of emergency medicine. But I leave there very amicably."

He said he plans to continue working at the three hospitals, "just expanding my hours."

When he ran for Congress in 2012, Gill disclosed that in 2011, he made $311,420 as an independent emergency-room physician.

He said he eventually hoped to run for public office again, but likely not this year.

And he said he would continue to "stay neutral" in this spring's three-way 13th District Democratic primary among Ann Callis, George Gollin and David Green.

But the seat "still interests me," Gill said. "I want to see the people of Illinois 13 represented appropriately. I still feel that the voters got a raw deal last time, with the views by (independent candidate) John Hartman and I winning the day by 6 or 7 points, but those views aren't being represented in Washington, D.C., right now."

In the 2012 election, Gill got 46.21 percent, Hartman got 7.24 percent and the winner, Republican Rodney Davis, got 46.55 percent.

"I certainly would like to see the majority of people have their voice in Washington, which I believe they aren't. They got cheated by the way John Hartman and I split the votes," Gill said...
