Alexi Giannoulias (-enəˈlɛksi dʒəˈnuːli.əspron; born March 16, 1976) is the Illinois State Treasurer. A Democrat, Giannoulias defeated Republican candidate State Senator Christine Radogno in November 2006 with 54 percent of the vote, becoming the first Democrat to hold the office in 12 years and, at the age of 30, the youngest State Treasurer in the nation.

On July 26, 2009, Giannoulias announced his candidacy in the 2010 election for the seat in the United States Senate currently held by Roland Burris. Burris, who was appointed by Governor Rod Blagojevich to fill the seat vacated by Barack Obama following his election as President of the United States, has chosen not to seek election. Giannoulias won the Democratic primary on February 2, 2010, and will face Republican Mark Kirk in the general election in November 2010.
