Unfortunately, McHenry County Blog had to get the press release second hand.

Next time, I hope the campaign will email it to me, so I don’t have to re-type it.

Bianchi reaches out to non- supporters

CRYSTAL LAKE – McHenry County State’s Attorney Lou Bianchi said Wednesday that he will reach out to all McHenry County citizens, including those who didn’t support him Tuesday, in an effort to heal any wounds from a bruising campaign.

Bianchi won re-election convincingly Tuesday by 57-43 percent over Dan Regna.

“We will continue to be State’s Attorney for all the people, not just those who support me politically,” said Bianchi. “It’s time to put the acrimony behind us.”

Bianchi characterized his victory as a “mandate for straightforward leadership” and said he was anxious to fulfill his second term goals. He also thanked the citizens of McHenry County.

“I am humbled and honored to have the support of the people and will continue working hard to live up to the trust they are placing in me,” he said.

The press release was faxed a bit late—3:30ish AM–to get in one of the Heralds yesterday.
