Former Cary Grade School President Christopher Spoerl has gotten a big boost in his desire to serve on the McHenry County Board.
For whatever reason, Spoerl did not submit his name for consideration when the Republican Party was interviewing potential replacements for Andrew Gasser, who resigned to take his new position, Algonquin Township Road Commissioner.
Very recently, the GOP leadership team decided that the Cary man would be acceptable and has recommended his apoointment.
So, there will not be a fight at the County Board meeting that considers Chairman Jack Franks’ nomination of Spoerl to replace Gasser.
Well Pam is stepping down and she would like to move up in the world.
Come on, rub rub!
When you know you are beaten you do what any good Surf would do, you genuflect before the master and scrape.
Why am I not shocked?
You people on the board will cave to anything.
This is totally digusting that we have no one willing to stand up for our county.
Fierabras is right.
Every one of them should be run out of town.
I thought they recommended Steipler and another guy.
I’m not really familiar with this process and have some questions.
Are they changing their recommendation, or adding another acceptable one?
When is the meeting to replace Gasser?
How many candidates are there?
Will the County Board have all of the candidates on a ballot, or do they only get to pick the ones recommended by the GOP?
Did all of the Republican Board Members receive notice of the Party’s change in pick, or just a select group of Members?
Please ask your local Board members and report back.
The appointment was made this morning.
Two voted against it.
I believe the GOP leaders added the name that Jack Franks nominated after its second nominee dropped out because of the intrusive questionnaire from Franks.
Just got the Herald’s article.
It sounds like Franks just recommended who he wanted, and the board got to vote on it.
Next time we can just forego what the Republican Party thinks, since they’ll just rubberstamp Franks’ recommendations anyway even though “For whatever reason, Spoerl did not submit his name for consideration when the Republican Party was interviewing potential replacements.”
Who’s on this GOP Board?
Tryon.
