NEW YORK TIMES
— America holds onto an undemocratic assumption from its founding: that some
people deserve more power than others. – Jamelle Bouie (DIERSEN:
Ever-increasingly, Trump-haters promote hatred against those whose ancestors
have been in America for a long time, and especially against those who are
Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White,
male, older, non-poor, gun owners, German American, and/or draft avoiders.) https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/08/14/magazine/republicans-racism-african-americans.html
TOWN COURIER
— City Councilman Robert Wu Seeks Second Term – Ellyn Wexler http://towncourier.com/city-councilman-robert-wu-seeks-second-term/ (FROM THE ARTICLE: Many
of the skills Wu has honed during his day job—as senior attorney at the U.S.
Government Accountability Office (GAO)—have helped him become effective in his
City of Gaithersburg position. “I often find myself in the role of interpreting
ordinances, parsing out legalese when amendments to existing language are
proposed, and, at least in one instance, actually drafting an ordinance,” he
said. “At GAO,” Wu explained, “I serve in a quasi-judicial role, adjudicating
bid protests filed with our office. The skillset is very similar to that used
in deciding matters brought before the city council, including fairmindedness,
the ability to absorb large records and ultimately render a decision.” “A firm
belief that process matters” also factors into both jobs. “As companies who
file protests with GAO understand, while we might not necessarily agree with them
in the end, each argument raised is heard and carefully considered,” Wu said.
“The same goes for my work at city council. Each individual who takes their
valuable time to appear before us or submit written matters has to know that
their views have been heard and seriously considered.”)

discourage everyone from reading GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails. They turn everyone that
they can against me, including those who run the Holiday Inn in Carol Stream,
those who ran the Wheaton Bowl, Milton Township Republican Central Committee

make false accusations against me and demonize me, denigrate me, and condemn me

WIKIPEDIA
— Negative campaigning (DIERSEN: If you seek a government office or a
political office, you should expect that sooner or later, your opponents will
engage in negative campaigning against you. I am seeking appointment to fill
Wheaton’s West District City Council vacancy. Even though there is no chance
that I will be selected, my opponents in Wheaton’s West District are engaging
in negative campaigning against me. At the Milton Township Republican Central
Committee (MTRCC) August 14, 2019 meeting at the Holiday Inn in Carol Stream,
two of my fellow MTRCC members in Wheaton’s West District falsely charged me
with harassing the hotel’s employees. In addition, one of them, in front of an
attorney, said that he was going to do everything that he could to stop
everyone from reading my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails.) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_campaigning
(FROM THE POSTING: Negative campaigning or mudslinging is the process of
deliberate spreading negative information about someone or something to worsen
the public image of the described. Deliberate spreading of such information can
be motivated either by honest desire of the campaigner to warn others against
real dangers or deficiencies of the described, or by the campaigner’s dishonest
ideas on methods of winning in political, business or other spheres of
competition against an honest rival. The public image of an entity can be
defined as reputation, esteem, respect, acceptance of the entity’s appearance,
values and behavior by the general public of a given territory and/or a social
group, possibly within time limits. As target groups of public and their values
differ, so negativity or positivity of a public image is relative; thus, to be
successful, negative campaigning has to take into account current values of the
group it addresses. The degree of strictness in practicing the group’s values
as opposed to its tolerance for violating the norms has also to be taken into
consideration.)

adds that while much of the “wealth and opportunity gap” affecting

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— The August Milton Township Republican Central Committee (MTRCC) monthly
meeting is this evening at the Holiday Inn in Carol Stream. The social hour
starts at 6:00 PM and the meeting starts at 7:00 PM. SEE: http://dupagegop.org/calendar-3/
I will be signing in as a candidate. I am a candidate to be
appointed to fill Wheaton’s West District City Council vacancy. The other six Republican
candidates are Edward Ahern, Jeffery Antonelli, Angela Blatner, Nancy Harding,
Mark Kmeicik, and Robert McNeily.
Hopefully, all of the aforesaid seven candidates will a) attend
meeting, b) announce their candidacies, c) and seek the support of the eighteen
Republican Precinct Committeemen who represent Wheaton’s West District. Those
eighteen Precinct Committeemen are Joseph Caruso, Dave Diersen, Thomas Elsner,
Arthur Grant, Ralph Hinkle, Marty Keller, John Kocinski, Robert Krzyzewski,
Michael Hinsdale, Jae Kwon, Robert Larsen, Connor McCarthy, Robert McNeily,
Ronald Menna, Elizabeth Tatro, James Ryan, Mark Thomas, and Herbert Wehling.
Hopefully, MTRCC will gather relevant information about the
aforesaid seven candidates, provide that information to the aforesaid eighteen
Precinct Committeemen, and host a candidate forum. The goal of providing
information on the candidates and hosting a candidate forum is to help the
aforesaid eighteen Precinct Committeemen recommend to Wheaton’s City Council
the best possible candidate to be appointed to fill the Wheaton West District
City Council vacancy.
In my opinion, the following information about all 10 candidates
should be disclosed: How long they have lived in Wheaton, how long they have
lived in Wheaton’s West District, their work experience, their education, their
professional certifications and licenses, their memberships in professional
associations, why they want to be appointed to fill the vacancy, what they
believe the three most important issues are that Wheaton needs to address in
the next 2 years and how those issues those issues should be addressed, their
political affiliation and activities, their civic activities, if they would
vote for or against banning the sale of pot in Wheaton, what their position is
on Wheaton’s Roosevelt Road corridor, if they would vote for or against
requiring employers in Wheaton to use E-Verify, and what they have done that
demonstrates they can carry out typical city council functions. In my opinion,
Republican Precinct Committeemen in Wheaton’s West District should have the
above information.
At Wheaton’s City Council meeting on Monday, August 19, 2019, its
members will go into executive session to deliberate on the 10 candidates who
have applied. Because, in that session, they will be reviewing the documents
that the 10 candidates have submitted, Wheaton has denied my FOIA request for
those documents.
According to MTRCC’s bylaws (http://www.miltongop.org/about-mtrcc/by-laws),
“When a position within Milton Township is declared vacant, the MTRCC
shall meet within forty (40) days of the declaration of vacancy to recommend an
individual to fill such vacancy. The recommendation shall be decided at a
convention of the Organization by a majority vote of the Organization through a
written ballot.” It would be great if MTRCC would host a candidate forum
for the aforesaid seven Republican candidates.” I urge MTRCC to do the
aforesaid concerning Wheaton’s West District City Council vacancy.
Many Republican candidates, elected officials, and party leaders
routinely attend MTRCC meetings. I hope that the following will attend MTRCC’s
August 14 meeting and a candidate forum if one is held: a) Wheaton’s mayor and
City Council members, b) 6th Congressional District candidates Jeanne Ives and
Evelyn Sanguinetti; c) DuPage County Recorder candidates Ron Almiron and
Babette Holder; d) Illinois officials including Amy Grant; e) DuPage County
officials including Robert Berlin, Fred Bucholz, Daniel Cronin, Pete DiCianni,
Grant Eckhoff, Timothy Elliott, Robert Grogan, Gwen Henry, Richard Jorgensen,
Christopher Kachiroubas, Robert Larsen, Paula McGowen, James Mendrick, Al
Murphy, Sean Noonan, Jeffrey Redick, Darlene Ruscitti, Timothy Whelan, and Jim
Zay; f) Milton Township officials including Sal Falbo, Chris Heidorn, Gail
Hinkle, Marty Keller, Chris LeVan, Gary Muehlfelt, David Molitor, John Monino,
and Yada Nathwani; g) Wheaton Park District officials including Michael Benard;
h) School District 200 officials; and i) College of DuPage officials including
Annette Corrigan, Christine Fenne, Heidi Holan, and Frank Napolitano.
It will be extremely interesting to see which of the seven
candidates are endorsed by which of the aforesaid candidates, elected
officials, and party leaders, and especially which candidates Ives and Sanguinetti
might endorse because they both have served on Wheaton’s City Council.
Further, I will be asking a) Susan Fitch, Chris Zaruba, and other
Wheaton City Council members who attend the meeting to brief the meeting’s
attendees on actions being taken to ban the sale of pot in Wheaton and b) Grant
Eckhoff, Tim Elliott, Bob Larsen, Jim Zay, and other DuPage County Board
members who attend the meeting to brief the meeting’s attendees on actions
being taken to ban the sale of pot in DuPage County’s unincorporated areas.
Further, I will be asking the meeting’s attendees to join me, Bob
Cherry, Dick Furstenau, B.J. Singer, and Tim Whelan in urging DuPage County,
Wheaton, Carol Stream, Glendale Heights, Lombard, Downers Grove, Naperville,
Warrenville, West Chicago, and the rest of the 38 municipalities in DuPage
County to ban the sale of pot.
Further, I will be asking the DuPage County Republican Central
Committee, its Chairman Marty Keller, MTRCC, and the other eight Republican township
party organizations in DuPage County to urge DuPage County and the 38
municipalities in DuPage County to ban the sale of pot. – Dave Diersen http://www.gopillinois.com

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— All politics is local. It should be extremely important to you who represents
you in your municipality’s government. Residents of Wheaton’s West District
have been represented in Wheaton’s government by Todd Scalzo for the last 10
years, but Scalzo has resigned.
It would be great if the Milton Township Republican Central
Committee (MTRCC) would host a candidate forum for the seven Republican
candidates who are seeking appointment to fill Wheaton’s West District City
Council vacancy.
Those seven candidates are Edward Ahern, Jeffery Antonelli, Angela
Blatner, Dave Diersen, Nancy Harding, Mark Kmiecik, and Robert McNeily.
Hopefully, all of the aforesaid seven candidates will a) attend
MTRCC’s 7:00 PM Wednesday August 14, 2019 meeting at the Holiday Inn in Carol
Stream, b) announce their candidacies, c) and seek the support of the eighteen
Republican Precinct Committeemen who represent Wheaton’s West District.
Those eighteen Precinct Committeemen are Joseph Caruso, Dave
Diersen, Thomas Elsner, Arthur Grant, Ralph Hinkle, Marty Keller, John
Kocinski, Robert Krzyzewski, Michael Hinsdale, Jae Kwon, Robert Larsen, Connor
McCarthy, Robert McNeily, Ronald Menna, Elizabeth Tatro, James Ryan, Mark
Thomas, and Herbert Wehling.
Hopefully, MTRCC will gather relevant information about the
aforesaid seven candidates and provide that information to the aforesaid
eighteen Precinct Committeemen.
The goal of the candidate forum and providing information on the
candidates is to help the aforesaid eighteen Precinct Committeemen recommend to
Wheaton’s City Council the best possible candidate to be appointed to fill the
Wheaton West District City Council vacancy.
Many Republican candidates, elected officials, and party leaders
routinely attend MTRCC meetings. I hope that the following will attend MTRCC’s
August 14 meeting and a candidate forum if one is held: a) 6th Congressional
District candidates Jeanne Ives and Evelyn Sanguinetti; b) DuPage County
Recorder candidates Ron Almiron and Babette Holder; c) Wheaton’s mayor and City
Council members; d) Illinois officials including Amy Grant; e) DuPage County
officials including Robert Berlin, Fred Bucholz, Daniel Cronin, Pete DiCianni,
Grant Eckhoff, Timothy Elliott, Robert Grogan, Gwen Henry, Richard Jorgensen,
Christopher Kachiroubas, Robert Larsen, Paula McGowen, James Mendrick, Al
Murphy, Sean Noonan, Jeffrey Redick, Darlene Ruscitti, Timothy Whelan, and Jim
Zay; f) Milton Township officials including Sal Falbo, Chris Heidorn, Gail
Hinkle, Marty Keller, Chris LeVan, Gary Muehlfelt, David Molitor, John Monino,
and Yada Nathwani; g) Wheaton Park District officials including Michael Benard;
h) School District 200 officials; and i) College of DuPage officials including
Annette Corrigan, Christine Fenne, Heidi Holan, and Frank Napolitano.
It will be extremely interesting to see which of the seven
candidates are endorsed by which of the aforesaid candidates, elected
officials, and party leaders, and especially which candidates Ives and
Sanguinetti might endorse because they have served on Wheaton’s City Council. –

Beyond the fried food on a stick and the iconic Butter Cow, another big
attraction at the Iowa State Fair is the unscientific straw poll open to all
attending the fair. In 2015, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump ran away with the
poll. Hillary Clinton won the Iowa caucus and Trump came in a very close second
behind Ted Cruz. Trump and Clinton eventually faced one another in the general
election. This week’s straw poll is a reminder that the 2020 campaign is much
further along than most people, and even many candidates, realize. The fact is
elections — and the nomination process — are won in June, July and August.
With only 182 days until the Iowa caucuses, Warren and Harris are on the rise,
Biden and Sanders are fading, and the rest of the field is fried on a stick.)

who are Trump-haters and b) who fear Trump-haters.) https://nypost.com/2019/08/11/were-all-in-the-closet-trumps-hamptons-supporters-go-underground/ (FROM THE ARTICLE: While
Trump attended two big-money fundraisers for the Republican Party and his 2020
re-election campaign at mansions in Southampton and Bridgehampton on Friday,
many of his East End supporters are eschewing the spotlight — especially after
last week’s calls for boycotts of billionaire Stephen Ross’ gyms because he
hosted the president. “We are all in the closet,” said a boutique owner in
Southampton who fears reprisals from his customers — most of them moneyed
Democrats — if he speaks openly about his allegiance to Trump. “It’s like you
have this disease and people want to run away from you.” A builder based in
Westhampton worried that his customers would boycott his services if he reveals
his support of the president. “People have really strong opinions here and if
you go around wearing a MAGA hat, you really need to fear physical violence,”
he said, adding the anti-Trump aggression comes mostly from summer residents.
Trump won 51.5 percent of the vote among year-round residents of Suffolk County
in the 2016 election, compared to 44.6 percent for Democrat Hillary Clinton. In
2008 and 2012, most of the county voted for Barack Obama. Despite the recent
shift, many of Trump’s core supporters fear speaking out, especially during the
summer months, when beachfront villages from Westhampton to Montauk are filled
with left-leaning visitors from New York City.)

races and 35 said we should continue. A common theme in most of the responses
was an appreciation for our diligence in vetting the candidates through
questionnaires, background checks and interviews. They wanted the information
to help them decide on whom should get their vote. We agree the most important
part of what we do — and we do it better than most — is going in-depth with the
candidates on the issues. Getting specific answers to and solutions for some of
our most critical issues, like water quality and the environment, affordable
and attainable housing, the mental health and opioid crisis, how to improve
education and build new schools, mean the most to people. That same information

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Ten have applied to be appointed to fill Wheaton’s West District City
Council vacancy. If your representative on your city council resigned, what
would you want the process to fill the vacancy to include? I want the city to
issue a press release each time it receives an application to fill a vacancy.
Those press releases should not only disclose the applicant’s name, but the
completed application, resume, and all the documents that were submitted.
Residents should have the right to know not only the applicants’ names, but a)
how long they have lived in the city and in the district, b) why they want to
be appointed to fill the vacancy, c) what they believe the most important
issues are that the city needs to address, d) what their opinion is on how
those issues could be addressed, e) what their work experience is, f) what their
education is, g) what professional certifications and licenses are, and h) what
experience do they have carrying out typical city council functions: Review and
approve the annual budget; Establish long- and short-term objectives and
priorities; Oversee performance of the local public employees; Oversee
effectiveness of programs; Establish tax rates; Enter into legal contracts;
Borrow funds; Pass ordinances and resolutions; Modify the city’s charter;
Regulate land use through zoning laws; Regulate business activity through
licensing and regulations; Regulate public health and safety; Exercise the
power of eminent domain; Communicate policies and programs to residents;
Respond to constituent needs and complaints; and Represent the community to
other levels of government. (SEE: https://www.nlc.org/city-councils)
There should be at least one well-publicized candidate forum before an
appointment is made. Because aforesaid has not happened, and apparently will
not happen, for Wheaton’s West District City Council vacancy, yesterday, I
filed my application, and today, I filed a Freedom of Information Act request
for all the documents that applicants have filed. Needless-to-say, I want to
know if the candidates would vote for or against banning the sale of pot in
Wheaton. – Dave Diersen http://www.gopillinois.com
CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH BIG COLOR PICTURE IN THE NAPERVILLE SUN: DuPage
committee starts discussion on allowing or banning recreational pot sales in
unincorporated areas – ALICIA FABBRE (DIERSEN: At DuPage County’s last board
meeting, I called for DuPage County to be the first country in Illinois to ban
the sale of pot. I will continue to do that at future board meetings. Please
join me.) https://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/naperville-sun/ct-nvs-dupage-board-recreational-pot-st-0807-20190806-6cxgufxut5d2jb2cyjkkprv4dy-story.html (FROM THE ARTICLE:
Committee members will continue discussion of the issue on Aug. 20 and could
bring a recommendation to the full county board as early as the board’s Sept.
10 meeting. Currently, DuPage County zoning follows state law for medical
marijuana facilities. Under those rules, cannabis cultivation centers must be
located at least 2,500 feet from schools, group homes and residential areas and
dispensaries cannot be closer than 1,000 feet to the same sites. If the same
standards were used, there likely would be no place to locate a dispensary or
cultivation center in any area under the county’s jurisdiction, said Sam
Tornatore, who heads the board’s development committee. “If we decided to
mirror current zoning, then essentially it’s game over,” said Tornatore, a
Roselle Republican. He and others noted the county would have to adopt less
restrictive rules than those for medical marijuana in order to allow
dispensaries or cultivation centers in unincorporated areas. State law leaves
it to municipalities and counties to decide if they want to put any
restrictions in place for recreational marijuana businesses, officials said.
“The notion of granting easier access to recreational marijuana than to medical
marijuana makes no sense,” said board member Robert Larsen, a Wheaton
Republican.)

Kip Hill and Adam Shanks http://www.spokesman.com/stories/2019/aug/06/beggs-and-wendle-in-lead-for-spokane-city-council-/ (FROM THE ARTICLE: The
race for City Council president pitted two sitting members of the council
against Wendle, who despite her lack of resume in city politics was able to
raise substantial campaign funds. Beggs, an attorney with a background in
social justice who has represented the South Hill on the council since 2016,
raced to an early lead with 10,718 votes. Wendle finished the night in second
place with 9,349 votes. Mike Fagan, who has earned a reputation as the
council’s most conservative member, sought a promotion after two terms
representing the northeast district but trailed Beggs and Wendle with 8,093.
More ballots will be counted on Wednesday. The race also featured Phillip
Tyler, former president of the Spokane chapter of the NAACP, who has been
dogged by accusations of abuse by multiple ex-wives. He came in a distant
fourth. Beggs said he was confident heading into Tuesday’s election that he
would come out on top.)
