The McHenry County Republican Party has made the following mailing, which appears to be mainly a sample ballot:
McHenry County Board Chairman candidate Mike Walkup reports to the State Board of Elections that the Illinois Republican Party says the value of the mailing to his campaign was $2,010.20.
McHenry County Recorder of Deeds candidate Joe Tirio reports an in-kind contribution of $2,101.19.
McHenry County Auditor candidate Pam Palmer also reports $2,101.20.
McHenry County Circuit Clerk candidate Kathleen Keefe says she got $2,101.20, too.
With County Coroner Anne Majewski not having spent or raised enough to require filing anything with the State Board of Elections, one would assume that the value to her campaign was the same amount.
Presumably State’s Attorney candidate Patrick Kenneally will make a similar report.
So that means the mailing cost at least $12,600.
The McHenry County GOP is regressing to what it was three years ago!!
Where are the position statements on County Board size? The union proposal to guarantee continued Road Building EVEN if there is a natural disaster which requires every transportation dollar to feed the masses?
The pension problem is due to the stupid voters who changed our Constitution in 1970! Will we make the same mistake again?
Nice mailing
Hmmmmmmmmm…..they’re endorsing Cowlin for Judge?????
That would be like GOP endorsing Fidel Castro or Boss Tweed …..
doesn’t an endorsee have to give, at least, lip service to Republican principles????
If the Republican party is for low taxes and if they have been the majority party in McHenry County and if they believe in local school boards who voted for teachers’ raises and benefits why are McHenry County property taxes so high?
karma:
The answer to your question as to why are property taxes so high?
The schools account for that.
And in McHenry County, most school boards are Democratic leaning and beholden to teachers unions.
But I suspect you knew that.
I thought this was the official sample ballot. https://www.co.mchenry.il.us/home/showdocument?id=67064
Why are taxes so high?
Watch the free 1 hour documentary video about Michael Madigan, available until 7PM today.
He is not the entire reason, rather, a contributing factor.

The gas bag known as gasser was seen in Algonquin today putting in a Jack Franks sign at approximately 10:30 am near Jacobs high school on Bunker Hill Drive and Woods Creek Lane.
The gas bag known as gasser is just like the other republicans who are endorsing Jack Franks. I hope there are pictures of him in his silver stained gas bag mobile. Gas bag gasser you didn’t even bother to take off your Joe Walsh and Patrick Kenneally signs on your truck.
The gass bag known as gasser has NEVER publicly endorsed Mike Walkup and former precinct committeemen on facebook say the gas bag known as gasser always praises Franks!
The gas bag known as gasser is truley dirty and is the real democrat plant inside the McHenry County Republican Party.
Gas bag gasser does not pay taxes and lives in mommy and daddy’s basement. Gas bag gasser how do you defend your actions looser?
The gas bag known as gasser has no friends and no one likes him.
Great Job on the mailer McHenry County Republican Party.
It looks fantastic!
With regard to the comments from Dirty Gasser.
I would like to wish you peace.
I hope you can find it within yourself to some day respect someone who is not exactly like you.
The anger you have for Andrew goes beyond him and his politics, the anger you have for him must be very personal. No one I know would go to the lengths you do, to to harass someone to this degree, on a routine basis.
May you some day find happiness in your own life and be able to move on.
Dirty Gasser: ….. the douche bag
In theatre, a farce is a comedy that aims at entertaining the audience through situations that are highly exaggerated, extravagant, and thus improbable.
You’re fun …. but Fu*k you.
Can’t say it plainer than that.
Go join your Democratic boyfriends in the little girls room.
Ok dirty gasser (no caps to make it easier
to read) get help & medication.
You just need to stop breathing all the
Methane and get potty trained.
Dirty Gasser ….Why didn’t YOU take a pix of the fantasy incident????
Dirty gasser, get a hobby.
You are just a nuisance.
No one is buying what you are selling.
Andy was with me and Rachael Lawrence at that time, in Woodstock at my office.
What a crock.
…oh, almost forgot, Andy Snarski was here too.
Sorry to burst your bubble, fellow who goes by “Dirty Gasser,” but I, too was with Andrew Gasser in Joe Tirio’s office during the time you accuse him of being “the real democrat plant inside the McHenry County Republican Party.’
I don’t know who you are, but everyone knows you are lying.
Your pathetic personal attacks are stooping to the Kerri Barber level, and that’s saying a lot.
I will pray for you, that you be granted enough genuine self esteem that you no longer need to fabricate tales in an attempt to drag others to your level.
I genuinely feel sorry that you have so much hate in your heart and that your entire existence seems to be the town jester of this page.
Sincerely,
Rachael Lawrence
