This is a long, but important e-mail about the most important political race in Illinois. Please remember that the choices you have in November are dictated by the choices you make in this primary election. You have to get out and vote tomorrow, and you have to get 10 of your friends to do the same. Also, don’t split your vote. Just vote for the conservative newcomer who can win.
This is a personal request that you vote for Adam Andrzejewski, the best Republican candidate for Governor. I would like to tell you about Adam and his campaign, and I have a unique perspective, as I was instrumental in the campaign as Adam’s policy director up until early December. I am still actively involved as a volunteer.
I know many of you may have already picked a candidate. It is a wide field, and there are many different types of qualifications that people look for. Many of those qualifications can be found in some mix or match of the 6 people in this race.
Sadly, when Republicans lack what they think is the perfect candidate, they opt for the next in line, the person who has “waited their turn.” That has not worked out well for our party, particularly here in Illinois. If anyone deserves “their turn,” it is the poorly governed citizens of Illinois, whose government has been hijacked by spending interests on both sides of the aisle. I urge you to reject the “next in line” or yesterday’s news.
Remember that every other candidate in this race has baggage that can, and will, be used by the Democrats in their campaign. Adam has no baggage! That is why he is the best candidate against the Democrats. They will be weakened, but they also will have cash, organization, and a pliant media to help them run smear campaigns. There is no smear campaign to run against Adam Andrzejewski.
I believe that once you take a closer look, you’ll find that Adam Andrzejewski is the best candidate. He offers the Republican Party and the citizens of Illinois the best opportunity to bring principled and reform-oriented conservativism back to Illinois Government. Look into Adam’s campaign platform. You can find all 15,000 words of robust conservative policy at www.adamforillinois.com.
If you want me to encapsulate all that policy in a few words, It’s very simple. Illinois is at the point of fiscal crisis, and the root causes of the problem are ethical as well as financial.
It is for that reason that Adam intends to introduce a new era of transparency, accountability and fiscal discipline to Springfield . His slogan “every dime, on line, in real time” encapsulates his desire to expose the state budget process to the scrutiny of the taxpayer. We deserve a government out in without smoke filled-rooms, corruption and cronyism will be his single passion in office.
Adam Andrzejewski is fighting to limit government spending and expose corruption in order to insure that essential government services are available to Illinois citizens. Most importantly, his strategy of bringing accountability and discipline to government will help keep taxes competitive and stimulate private sector job growth.
He is also willing to use the powers of the Governor’s office (Constitutionally powerful here in Illinois) to return Illinois to its citizens. The days of Governors using their office to consolidate power and build patronage armies must end. That model of governance has split the leadership of this party from the taxpayers and businesses that make up the GOP base. Nominating such a Republican will destroy the party.
Please consider supporting Adam Andrzejewski. If you agree, please help by spreading the word about his innovative campaign. This race is up for grabs, regardless of the millions wasted on attack ads and hair pieces. No candidate is above 20%, and the links below will tell you a bit about the momentum building behind Adam’s candidacy.
You can;
Vote for Adam on February 2nd. We cannot afford four more years of the status quo in Illinois . Please consider voting for Adam Andrzejewski; tell your family and friends to vote for him, and if you are able to, financially support his campaign.
Please set aside calculations, scenarios, and other such political pabulum like “only a moderate can win in Illinois.” If we have learned anything over the last few months, it is that Republicans can win when the people are given a real choice. The Democrats have given us the opportunity to attack their failed policies head-on. Why would we want to nominate a candidate without the ideas or the energy to mount that attack?
In closing, let me challenge you to get out and vote on Tuesday. If you are one of those souls who laments the awful choices between two bad candidates in a General Election, let me remind you that you have to pick the better candidates in the Primary. If you don’t vote in primary elections, maybe it is time that you started to. If you do vote in primaries, maybe it’s time to drag your 10 friends who don’t to the polls.
Thank you for your time. I know that all of you will weigh the decision thoughtfully, and then change your vote to Adam Andrzejewski. :-)
Sincerely,
Bruno Behrend
