5 July 2012: a statement issued by his staff today notes that the Congressman's "medical condition is more serious than we thought and initially believed" and that "he has grappled with certain physical and emotional ailments privately for a long period of time"; the statement went on to note that he will require "extended in-patient treatment as well as continuing medical treatment thereafter".

13 August 2012: The Mayo Clinic has confirmed that Congressman Jackson is being treated at their facility for Bipolar Disorder II.

7 September 2012: Media reports state that Congressman Jackson has left the Mayo Clinic and is back home.

• Seat up for election: Tuesday 9 April 2013
• Special Election - On 26 November 2012, Governor Patrick "Pat" Quinn called a Special Election to fill the vacant seat of Congressman Jesse Louis Jackson, Jr. (Democratic) who resigned on 21 November 2012. The Special Primary is set for 26 February and Special Election for 19 March 2013. To comply with state law, the Governor set the election date to 19 March. However, Governor Quinn is working with the General Assembly to move the general election date to 9 April 2013, the same day as an already-scheduled election. On 3 December 2012, Governor Quinn signed a SB 3338 which moves the Special Election to 9 April. The new date coincides with an existing Chicago election.
