— Anna Valencia’s Secretary of State Campaign Faces Criticism Over Ties to Madigan Organizations – Mary Ann Ahern
(COMMENT: Since I became a Republican Precinct Committeeman in 1999, I have gathered signatures in my precinct on nominating petitions for all the Republican candidates who have asked me to, but not this year because of my health problems.)
https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/chicago-politics/anna-valencias-secretary-of-state-campaign-faces-criticism-over-ties-to-madigan-organizations/2783933/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Politicos say it was much more difficult to get the required signatures this year because the process was moved to January rather than September, with the weather causing some issues. Another problem is voter anger with the political landscape in Illinois, and Democratic strategists say that those issues made experienced signature-getters even more valuable this time around. For Valencia, her campaign collected way more signatures than were required, with nearly 20,000 obtained. Only 6,500 signatures were required to get on the ballot in the race to replace incumbent Secretary of State Jesse White, who will retire after his term concludes. Strategists say that Valencia’s campaign received help in circulating petitions from groups with ties to Madigan’s organization. It also included help from Mike Kasper, the Valencia campaign’s attorney, who is one of Madigan’s closest aides. Ald. David Moore, one of Valencia’s opponents, has criticized her campaign for its affiliations with Madigan’s organization.)

Emily Johnson of Wheaton, the group’s candidate for governor, issued a campaign statement touting her support for the former Republican president who continues to perpetuate false claims that the 2020 presidential election was stolen by Democratic President Joe Biden.)
