Just in case you are interested, the McHenry County League of Women Voters will hold its second candidates’ forum for County Board candidates tonight at 7 at McHenry County College.
The doors will open at six for people wanting to meet candidates face-to-face.
There is no indication that any of the Democratic Party candidates will stiff voters the way McHenry County Board Chairman candidate Jack Franks did when he was supposed to appear with Republican Mike Walkup.
So that wil be what, 2 Republicans on the stage?
Perhaps 3?
All candidates for County Board in Districts 1, 2 and 3 attended Monday night’s event.

Will there be a live stream online?
Paula Yensen and Cathy Johnson were no shows.
I was hoping to have an entertaining night with the crazies there, but alas, last night was a bit dull.
On another note, many of the candidates had no clue about the proposed roundabout at Charles and Raffel–including some from District 6.
And when asked about the committee structure of McHenry County Board, many were clueless on that as well–but hey, they’re for cutting the county board size, we should be cheerleading that, right?
