CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— DuPage County clerk candidates lay out goals for upcoming term should they be elected – David Sharos (COMMENT: I have had lots of interaction with the DuPage County Election Division (DCED) as a DuPage County Milton Township Republican Precinct Committeeman in Wheaton since 1999, as the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000, as the Milton Township Republican Organization webmaster 2000-2004 and 2008-2010, and as a Precinct Committeeman whose precinct was gerrymandered in 2015. I have always sought improved commination between DCED and Republican Precinct Committeemen concerning proposed changes in polling places, proposed changes in precinct lines, availability of sample ballots, availability of printed mailing labels, etc. The DCEC should not rely on political parties to pass information up/down between the DCED and precinct committeemen. I can provide many examples of communication failures.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican Sanguinetti, 51, of Wheaton, says she believes most voters are going to the polls with concerns about “safety, inflation and taxes, and trust in their elections.” Those are her concerns as well, especially the elimination of bail bonds under the SAFE-T Act going into effect Jan. 1. “I’m not saying the entire act is completely wrong — there are some good things about it — but safety is a concern as we’re seeing a lot of safety concerns in the city of Chicago and right now there has been reporting on an influx of crime into our community,” Sanguinetti said. If elected clerk, she said she’s committed to making changes that would restore residents’ faith in the voting system, she said. “We want to trust in our electoral system and, at this time in the county, there are issues,” she said. If elected, her goals are to modernize the clerk’s office and make its actions transparent so that residents know they can trust that things are working properly. One modernization effort would be to make the paperwork for marriage licenses available electronically, Sanguinetti said. “Those who wish to get married, we could streamline that by allowing them to do a lot of the paperwork and forms online,” she said. “I’ll also continue to advocate for the expansion of online services by pursuing legislation to file budgets and levies online with digital signatures rather than in person,” she said. Sanguinetti also wants to work within the community to sign up more election judges from the ranks of local high school students, thereby getting them involved in the civic process, she said. Sanguinetti’s list of the most important aspects of the job she seeks to win include: Generating revenue by producing a list of all county parcels for tax assessment; Overseeing vital records, including birth, death, legal marriage and civil union certificates; Administering elections. . .Regarding security, Kaczmarek said “voters hear a lot of misinformation and some voters believe that.” “We are trying to overcome that and there is such a steady drum beat of misinformation,” she said. “Also voters are concerned about accessibility and the election process.”)

— Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker suffocates free speech – Steve Cortes (COMMENT: What if Pritzker successfully used his tremendous religious, government, political, and financial clout to stop me from sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters? Who would come to my defense? Which of the following would come to my defense: past and present a) readers of my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters, b) leaders of the Illinois Republican Party (IRP), DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO), c) IRP State Central Committee members for my congressional district, d) Republican elected and appointed officials for all or part of DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, etc., e) Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct for offices in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton, their political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers, f) conservative activists and leaders, g) religious activists and leaders, and/or h) MTRO, TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee, Illinois Center Right Coalition, and American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter member and leaders?)
https://www.cities929.com/2022/09/28/op-ed-illinois-gov-j-b-pritzker-suffocates-free-speech/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: First, it would be amazing to listen to Pritzker actually define how papers such as the Chicago Sun Times and Chicago Tribune are “legitimate journalism.” But regardless, Paddock Publications relented and canceled the printing contract. Even though the company readily admits it prints all kinds of newsletter and newspaper products, without regard for the content, these papers became suddenly unprintable. Concurrent with the suppression of the newspapers, the Pritzker campaign used infamous Democrat lawyer Marc Elias to pressure two Chicago TV stations, WGN and local NBC, to cancel anti-Pritzker PAC ads from airing. Welcome to America in the 2020s! A land where the White House can cancel your social media and a sitting governor can have your paper tossed and your TV ads refused. Such are the tactics of a person like Pritzker, who deems himself lord of some realm rather than an elected servant leader. After all, this is the same disgraced politician who ordered some of the most draconian and unscientific lockdown edicts in America during the Spring of 2020, while sending his own family via private jet to luxuriate at their ultra-high end equestrian estate in Ron DeSantis’ open state of Florida. If the voters receive the full spectrum of information about Pritzker and choose to re-elect him, so be it. But this speech repression cannot stand. Thankfully, the opposition to Pritzker in Illinois remains steadfast. Local radio host Dan Proft, affiliated with both the newspapers and the TV ads, declared: “the papers will continue to be printed and distributed even if we have to return to the Gutenberg Press.” In fact, the furor over the cancelation has likely created an even more intense anti-Pritzker backlash. More donors have already lined up and new printers have been secured. In the spirit of the pamphleteers of colonial America, the freedom of expression lives on in Illinois. For now.)

PATRIOT POST
— Biden’s Open Border Invasion — The Real Numbers? What percent of the 330 million people within the United States arrived illegally since Biden took office? – MARK ALEXANDER (COMMENT: There are an estimated 12 million illegals in America. Of those 12 million, in 2020, how many used their false identifications to vote for Biden and for the rest of the Democrat candidates a) in America, b) in Illinois, c) in your county, d) in your county district, e) in your township, f) in your municipality, g) in your municipal district, and h) in your precinct? How many will vote for Democrat candidates on November 8, 2022?)
https://patriotpost.us/alexander/91665-bidens-open-border-invasion-the-real-numbers-2022-09-28
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As I noted at the time, in 2021 alone, Biden authorized almost 1,000 large charter “ghost flights” to many U.S. locations, including planes loaded with children — most under cover of darkness. If 48 illegal immigrants flying onto the charmed and idyllic Martha’s Vineyard Island constitutes a “humanitarian crisis,” consider the impact of Biden flying 148 THOUSAND immigrants into undisclosed locations around the nation in the middle of the night. Notably, he sent 70 flights to Florida. . .On Biden’s watch, more than 3.7 million illegal border crossers have surrendered to or been captured by DHS since Biden took office. About 1.8 million have been expelled based on Title 42 pandemic restrictions still in place, though Biden just declared the pandemic is over, so maybe those expulsions are about to come to an abrupt halt. The other 1.8 million illegal immigrants were logged by DHS and then released, most swamping the towns and resources of border states and resulting in a real and sometimes deadly humanitarian crisis. New illegal immigrant records were set in August, but — and it is a BIG “but” — there are many more who cross undetected. DHS officially estimates there were more than 900,000 “known gotaways,” those who entered but were not captured, counted, and released. And that estimate is likely to be substantially under the actual number of “gotaways.” The total number of illegal immigrants Biden has invited across our border in the first 20 months he was in office is closer to 3.3 million. That surge includes criminals who are bringing record amounts of deadly fentanyl into the country, resulting in record deaths of American citizens. Notably, it also includes increasing numbers of terrorists and other violent offenders. Consider that 3.3 million number again — you don’t have to be a math scholar to do a quick percentage calculation. There are about 330 million people in the United States, and 3.3 million is 1% of that population. In other words, the number of illegal aliens Biden has allowed into our nation since he has been in office is equivalent to 1% of our total population. If that stat does not shock you, then you must live in some tony gated community like Martha’s Vineyard. What might also shock you is that Democrats were opposed to illegal immigration before they realized their political future was in jeopardy and decided to replenish their ranks by throwing open our southern border.)

— Americans at the ends of the ideological spectrum are the most active in national politics – CARRIE BLAZINA
https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2022/01/05/americans-at-the-ends-of-the-ideological-spectrum-are-the-most-active-in-national-politics/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: About 85% of adults in the two groups at the ends of the political spectrum voted in 2020 (85% of Faith and Flag Conservatives and 86% of Progressive Left). Moving from either end of the typology toward more ideologically mixed groups shows a gradual decrease in turnout. Faith and Flag Conservatives and those categorized as Progressive Left were also the most likely to report having contributed money to candidates and political organizations in 2020, to have posted support for a candidate or campaign on social media, and to have attended political rallies in person or virtually.)
— A little more than half of the journalists surveyed (55%) say that every side does not always deserve equal coverage in the news. By contrast, 22% of Americans overall say the same, whereas about three-quarters (76%) say journalists should always strive to give all sides equal coverage. – NAOMI FORMAN-KATZ AND MARK JURKOWITZ (COMMENT: GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters fill a tremendous void in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, and in Wheaton. They provide news and commentary coverage from the right, that is, from the conservative point of view, that is, from the platform Republican point of view, that is, from the Republican point of view.)
