Sheriff’s Candidate Zane Seipler Files ALAW’s Conflict of Interest Form

Zane Seipler

So far thirteen candidates for the McHenry County Board have filed the conflict of interest forms that the Alliance for Land, Agriculture and Water have suggested be applied to all county officials.

Yesterday, Zane Seipler, who is challenging three-term incumbent Keith Nygren for Sheriff, filed his form.

“I have nothing to hide. Literally, nothing at all!”

he emailed me with his filled out form.

This marks the first time that the issue of ethics raised by ALAW has reached the level of offices all of us in McHenry County get to vote on.

Two additional county board members filed as well.

They are incumbent Sandy Salgado, who is running unopposed along with incumbent Pete Merkel, in District 3’s Republican primary election. Their Democratic opponent Jeff Thirtyacre was one of the first to file.

Thirtyacre sent me this email:

Jeff Thirtyace

ALAW’s request for info should be the beginning of cleaning out the people that cause harm to our County.

We need this kind of openness with all our Government the time for dishonesty and Greed has to come to an end.

And This needs to go for all government starting with Township and School Districts and their Boards,also Hospital Boards where ever there is politics it should be in place so that we don’t have another situation like the one we just had with our former Governor.

I believe we need a States Attorneys office that doesn’t work for just one party it work for the people.

And a Sheriffs Department that’s officers care about all of our County not just where they live.

Besides Salgado, District 6 Republican candidate Richard Draper of Wonder Lake has filed his questionnaire.  He is the third in this most rural district to have filed the ALAW questionnaire.  Preceding him by three days were challenger Dianne Evertson and incumbent Mary McCann.  Incumbent Dab Ryan has not yet filed the form.

Below you can click on the forms that have been filed with ALAW or get one to fill out or go here. Look at one and you can see, for most people, it’s not a tough from to fill out.  Note the dates on which the forms were filed.

Sheriff’s Candidate Zane Seipler Files ALAW’s Conflict of Interest Form — 2 Comments

  1. Just to clarify if you look at the dates the disclosures were filed, the date of Jan. 9 on Craig Steagall should actually be Jan. 5. His was the first one filed, but when I posted it didn’t upload right so I corrected it on the 9th. Thanks Craig for getting this ball rolling.
