Robo-Calls from Glenda Miller and Nick Provenzano

Tuesday night and the election is five weeks away.

The Skinner household received two recorded phone calls.

The first was from McHenry County Treasurer candidate Glenda Miller.

She made a pitch for people asking for applications for mail-in ballots.  We used to call that “absentee voting.”

New is that no particular reason needs to be given to get such a ballot.

Miller said to call the County Clerk’s Office at 815-334-4242 to ask for an application.

And she said she would be deeply appreciative “if you would consider voting for me for Country Treasurer.”

The second call was from Nick Provenzano, who is running for County Clerk.

He was soliciting yard sign sites.

He said it was easy to get on the list:  “Press 3.”

Provenzano pointed out the County Clerk Kathie Schultz is retiring and the wanted to carry on her legacy, but he wanted to make the office more efficient.  He used a couple of more characterizations that I didn’t get jotted down.

He said Congressman Randy Hultgren, State Senators Pam Althoff, Dan Duffy and Karen McConnaughay, State’s Attorney Lou Bianchi and others he didn’t list were endorsing his candidacy.

Miller is running against Crystal Lake City Councilman Jeff Thorsen.

Provenzano is facing off against Mary McClellan.  Both are County Board members in District 3.

  1. The fact that these lousy politicians exempted themselves from laws forbidding robo calls, ignoring do not call lists, is disgusting.

    Anyone that calls my home and pulls this please vote for me crap, loses my vote.

    Some even robo calls don’t recognize an answering machine and plug up the recorder with their BS.

    Miller left a message for me so she is a no vote.

    Got that Glenda?

    I wonder how many no votes they get versus actual votes.

  2. Provenzano’s call started out by addressing me as “My fellow Republican.”

    NOBODY calls me names like that.

    NOBODY
