As I've written before, I'm supporting the My Clarendon Hills slate of candidates.
This includes:
Len Austin for Village President as a WRITE-IN candidate
Greg Jordan for Trustee
Carol Jorissen for Trustee
Don McGarrah for Trustee
I received something in the mail today, and you may have, too, from C4CH that bothers me. Politics ain't beanbag as they say, but I feel what they sent is deliberately misleading. It bothers my sense of fair play, and I think it's a mighty underhanded tactic for this community.
C4CH mailed out a "Sample" ballot today. However, they deliberately MANIPULATED it so that it appears there is not a WRITE-IN option.
1) The piece LOOKS official, but, I assure you, it's not.
2) It seems to me to be a deliberate effort to DISENFRANCHISE voters and sow confusion that there is not an opponent in the Village President race. I can assure you, Len Austin is an official write-in candidate. In order for there to be a line on the ballot, he had to file paperwork. If someone tells you there's not another candidate, they're misinformed.
So, whether you agree with me or not, that's okay, but I feel this is important enough to open your eyes to it. I encourage you to find your REAL sample ballot at https://www.dupageco.org/
Early voting starts March 23!!!
Thanks for reading,
Jon Arendt
