Election Security Funding

by Sheila Rutledge, Cty Bd Dist. 6 (slightly edited)

The chairman is looking at the budget NOW! We want to ensure that the County Clerk’s office will be fully funded to provide election security. We will vote in November. but the scuttle is that he will fund the Sheriff’s Office request but not fully fund the Clerk.

We need to pressure him now! His email is chair@dupageco.org.

You can come and give public comment at our board meetings on the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays of the month at 10am at the 421 County Farm Rd. building on the 3rd floor. If you want to give public comment come early to sign up. If you want someone else to read your statement email it with your contact info to me at sheila.rutledge@dupageco.org and I will find someone to read it.

I’m worried that he is going to throw Jean under the bus just to “own the libs”. This is IMPORTANT!

LTDO September Meeting

Last Monday, September 16, LTDO held its final meeting of the summer at the Naperville Municipal Center. In October, we will return to the DuPage Unitarian Church.
David Stevens presented briefly on “Petitions: Getting It Right” and bravely continued to take questions through a temporary blackout. (A link to his handout is not available yet; one will be provided next week.)

We then received 90-second pitches from an abundance of Democratic primary candidates. We will have videos of each up by next week.
