Two presidents held public office in Illinois and lived there when they were elected President and they are Lincoln and Obama. Reagan was born in Illinois but had his career in California. Grant was living in Illinois when he left to fight in the Civil War but he never ran for office in Illinois and was not living there when he ran for President although he may have still owned a house in Illinois .
