The McHenry County League of Women Voters is holding a candidates’ forum tonight at McHenry County College.
Featured at the 7 PM event will be
Meet the candidates for the Illinois State Senate Districts 26, 32 and 33 at 6:30 pm. Hear them answer questions at 7 pm.
The Candidates:
- District 26 – Tom Georges (D), Dan McConchie (R)
- District 32 – Mary Mahady (D), Craig Wilcox (R)
- District 33 – Nancy Zettler (D), Don DeWitte (R)
This is the type of event Jack Franks routinely has skipped.
The League should allow whatever candidates show up to field questions from the audience regardless of whether or not they have an opponent present.
Instead they restrict the candidate who shows up to making a 5 minute statement, which penalizes the candidates who appeared.
LWV is horse-sh*t!

The League of Women Voters (LWV) routinely describes itself as a “nonpartisan political organization,” but in reality the group tows the liberal line on just about every policy question under the sun.
It has advocated for gun control and climate change legislation, is pro-Obamacare, pro-abortion, and anti-school choice.
Of course, there is nothing wrong, per se, with an organization holding liberal positions.
However, when you hold all these positions and continue to describe yourself as “nonpartisan” you, if I may paraphrase Sly from The Taming of the Shrew, score yourselves up as the lying’st knaves in Christendom.
