JEFFERSON CO., Ill.Ìýâ€� Jefferson County State’s Attorney Sean Featherstun tells News 3 he plans to run for re-election as a Republican.

Featherstun was elected to the state’s attorney position as a Democrat back in 2016, but Featherstun says he’s grown apart from the party in recent years and sides with Republicans on many issues.
