DAILY HERALD
— Ives seeks ‘more freedom’ for 6th District in campaign to unseat Casten –
Marie Wilson
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20190722/ives-seeks-more-freedom-for-6th-district-in-campaign-to-unseat-casten
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Marty
Keller, chairman of the DuPage County Republicans, said he hopes finding the
best person to defeat Casten, a clean energy entrepreneur who unseated longtime
Republican Rep. Peter Roskam last year, will be the true focus of the 2020
primary. But he doesn’t look forward to the anticipated conflicts between
Sanguinetti and Ives. “They’re going to bump heads and spend money,”
Keller said about the intraparty foes. “I don’t think you’ll find a primary
that made the party stronger afterward.” Ives, 54, said she won’t overlook
the primary and knows Sanguinetti has her supporters. But she said she isn’t
worried about conflict within the Republican Party. “What Republican
Party?” she said. “The Republican Party is pretty divided
already.” Her primary run against Rauner is one illustration, and not an
example she shies away from. Ives said that challenge shows she’s able to call
out — or work with — people of any party when policy or the public good calls
for it. “Nobody’s been more independent from both parties than Jeanne
Ives,” she said. But in her campaign launch speech Sunday, Ives aligned
herself with Roskam, touting the endorsement she has received from the former
congressman and his wife, Elizabeth.)
