Franks Desire to “Run McHenry County” Surfaces in Daily Herald Letter

A letter to the Daily Herald from Cary’s Chris Lawrence, which is published with permission of the author:

Jack Franks

Jack Franks doesn’t want to be McHenry County Board Chairman, Franks wants to be Dictator of McHenry County. In a recent interview with WGN radio, Franks candidly stated that he was running for board chairman because he wanted to “run McHenry County.”

His words.

Franks has followed up his dictator aspirations — telling numerous people that he has legal opinions from lawyers that the chairman is not subject to county board Rules.

Franks is also bragging that the chair does not have to follow county board procedures to appoint committee chairs and members of boards and commissions.

Jack Franks tried to create the office of county executive four years ago which was rejected by the voters as giving one person too much power.

Franks apparently intends to do an end run around the will of the voters and set himself up now as county dictator.

Franks Desire to “Run McHenry County” Surfaces in Daily Herald Letter — 24 Comments

  1. Another refrain of the egotistical
    Song of Franco’s . . . I I I I me me
    Me me.
    Franks is just warming up & you better
    Vote for Mike Walkup to keep this
    Self-proclaimed King/czar from
    Being county board chairman.

  2. Now if he just makes one more promise to invade Lake County, plunder its resources and put its residents in work camps, to do our yards and pick up road trash. He’s my guy!

  3. Lying Jack Franks.

    Born with a silver spoon in his mouth.
    Never did an honest days work in his life.
    Forecloses on homes for a living ……..
    When he’s not pretending to represent the 63rd district in Springfield.
    Supported ‘Mad Mike Madigan’ for Speaker for 18 years.
    When he promised to run for only three terms.
    Promised not to run for County Board Chairman.
    LYING JACK FRANKS

  4. So much vitriol, so much hate.

    What has poor Jack Franks ever done to deserve such retched treatment?

    LMAOROTF

  5. Is this not what I was warning since day one? There is an agenda. This man is dangerous. Calling him cutesy names and commenting on his lies is not going to cut it. The people need to get serious in stopping these cabal antics in their infancy.

  6. Franks is a proven leader who has demonstrated a willingness to pass meaningful legislation that will save taxpayers money by not having to pay for bloated pensions.

    Is Walkup running for office to be Chairman or a wet noodle bending to the will of the board or run the board?

  7. Another self-proclaimed propaganda
    Comment that Franco ‘is a proven leader’.

    He is just a Madigan wannabe/Madigoon
    That voted for Madigan 9x out of 9 & did
    His bidding.

  8. Proven leader leading who, the Fags and the BLM gangs?

    That’s all his DEMONCRATIC party consists of anymore.

    Ooops, forgot union thugs.

    But wait; in all fairness we must mention he was a PIMP for ‘Mad Mike Madigan’ the man who bankrupted Illinois for 18 years.

  9. Mike Walkup already HAS been a leader
    On the board.

    Various people have explained this Moderate NOT
    & like MOST Jacko minions you haven’t
    Processed this.

    So save your ‘wet noodle’ for Jacko’s
    Fundraiser at the Holiday Inn.

  10. Ya see Martha , there are 2 thrones
    Set up in taxpayer HELL for Madigan
    & Jacko.

  11. If Jackie is such a proven leader, why can none of his lemmings list any tax saving accomplishments?

    Is it true Jackie refused to attend the League of Women Voters debate? That does not sound like a leader

  12. “Moderate” name one example of meaningful legislation that Franks passed that will save taxpayers money, I dare ya!

  13. Franks wants to be the Mike Madigan of McHenry County.

    I don’t care how many fancy events he has or how much he charges the people will vote him out.

  14. Franks has a better personal track record than Walkup whose claim to fame is a there is a road bearing his name named after someone else.

    Get over it, he is gonna win.

  15. Inish?

    I am just curious.

    Why would you willingly promote your own enslavement?

    Everything you have ever posted suggests that you like being enslaved to the agenda.

    I would really like to understand why.

  16. Sad comments that have been made before
    About Walkup & Franks coming from Inish.

    They are SIMPLE minded comments that
    Deflect from REAL issues in this political cycle.

    No facts, no meat, or actual accomplishments
    Of the person (Jacko Franco) they are blindly
    Supporting.

    That’s all you will get from people like Inish,
    Cindy.
