Illinois Conservatives Endorsements

About a year or so ago, young Zach Oltmanns and several of his friends created a Facebook page called Illinois Conservatives. The effort went viral locally and young Zach suddenly found himself all over TV, newspapers, and radio shows. Since then Zach has appeared at many Tea Party events and has become an in demand conservative representative. His group has gained thousands of members, too, both on Facebook and in real life in his area near Rockford, Illinois.

The group has put out a new video letting northern Illinois voters know who they support in the area.

This is a new video showing Illinois Conservative President Zach Oltmanns take on local politics. This video also shows some of the candidates we have endorsed and helped throughout the state. Local politics is so important and some local politicians try to sneak things by because they don’t think anyone is paying attention. Well WE are paying attention and we will go after them if they chose to spend OUR money recklessly.


Chicago Trib’s State Senate Campaign Endorsements

-By Warner Todd Huston

“Change will come to Illinois only if change comes to the Illinois General Assembly,” so says the Chicago Tribune as it lays out the “change” they hope to see on election day this November.

The Trib is feeling a tad anti-incumbent, it appears, as they’ve endorsed some challengers for the state senate in Springfield.

Here are the Republicans that the Trib is endorsing:
10th District (Northwest Side) Brian Doherty
19th District (Southwest suburbs) Adam Wojcik
22nd District (Northwest suburbs) Steve Rauschengberger
24th District (West suburbs) Chris Lauzen
28th District (Northwest suburbs) John Milner
31st District (North suburbs) Suzi Schmidt

The Democrat the Trib endorsed is Heather Steans of the 7th District.

Interesting in that some of these names are challengers. Schmidt is a challenger of Democratic incumbent Michael Bond, Rauschenberger is the challenger of incumbent Mike Noland, and Wojick is the GOP challenger of incumbent Maggie Crotty. The incumbents the Trib endorsed are Chris Lauzen, John Milner and Heather Steans.
