27 June 2012: vague public comments by the Congressman's wife, Chicago City Alderman Sandi Jackson, and Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel today have led to much media speculation that the Congressman's condition might well be rather serious.
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".
27 July 2012: Reports state that Congressman Jackson has been admitted to the Rochester Minnesota Mayo Clinic for depression and gastrointestinal ailments.
13 August 2012: The Mayo Clinic has confirmed that Congressman Jackson is being treated at their facility for Bipolar Disorder II. It was thought that- based on statements by an aide last week- the Congressman might be back in his District for the first time in some two months sometime later this week; the Congressman's staff has not publicly commented on the Mayo Clinic's announcement.
7 September 2012: Media reports state that Congressman Jackson has left the Mayo Clinic and is back home.
21 November 2012: Resigned stating "... I hereby resign as a member of the United States House of Representatives, effective today, in order to focus on restoring my health."

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.
