From State Senator Dan McConchie:
Without reservation, I fully endorse Joe Salvi to be appointed to replace me as State Senator for the 26th District of Illinois.
I have competed in three general elections in this district.
Even as the district has moved to the left, even when I have been outspent by the Democrats, I have always found a way to win.
And not only have I won, I have regularly outperformed virtually every other Republican candidate on the ballot.
In short, I know exactly what it takes to win in this district.
And Joe has it.
To win, it takes a commitment to our commonsense values while being accessible, relatable and reasonable.
My reasons for endorsing Joe are simple.
Joe has:
- Is loyal to our shared conservative values and to the Republican party.
- Developed the necessary campaign experience on Peter Roskam’s winning 2016 Congressional campaign and honed the skills necessary to win.
- Has committed to raise the funds needed to bring the fight to the Democrats.
- Already has a team of volunteers ready to assist with parades, events and, most importantly, door to door canvasing – an activity that Rep. Syed and Maria Peterson has proven translates into real, bankable votes.
- Has an incredibly strong work ethic paired with an outgoing, friendly personality that is welcoming
and attractive. - Possesses strong character and integrity. Joe will be the same person in Springfield that he is at
home. We can trust Joe.
I have personally known Joe for 10 years.
In that time, he has always been positive, upbeat and optimistic – qualities too often lacking in our party today.
He is married with young children presenting an image that voters love because it demonstrates that he understands them—that what they need from government are same things they will get from Joe–safety, security, and a government that otherwise stays out of their way.
