We've heard so many whoppers from government officials in recent years that some of us are tempted to give up on the Constitution. When those in power clearly don't have our best interests at heart, it betrays any trust we had in our government, destroys our hope for a better state, and kills the incentive to maintain law & order.

Fortunately, many voters have too much Common Sense to believe the obvious lies and intimidation. They know that for Illinois state government to have any moral authority, it must be a model of honesty and must obviously put residents' welfare foremost.

We must all take our voting responsibility seriously and kick out the liars, grifters and self-serving, power-hungry Marxists, and elect average citizens who will care about each citizens' welfare.  If you're not registered to vote, you can do so online at this website: Illinois Online Voter Registration Application: Home Page. 

I urge every registered voter to cast a ballot this year and use whatever method is most convenient for you: apply for a paper mail-in ballot with Chicago Board of Elections vote-by-mail or suburban Cook County Clerk vote-by-mail.  Widespread early in-person voting or paper ballot drop-off for the general election begins on October 21.
