Matt – I bet you one donut that if I reviewed all of the signatures on your last nominating petition, I would find that at least 10% of the signatures were invalid. What do you say? Do we have a wager? More to the point, it doesn’t matter if half of the signatures on any given petition are invalid, as long as you have the minimum required number.

One more thing – Grabbe and MacDonald are silent about the 1,000 plus bogus objections that they made to valid signatures. They say nothing about the signatures of husbands and wives that they claimed were “duplicates”, they are mum about the hundreds of other nonsensical “duplicate” objections that they made that had the County Clerks scratching their heads because they made no sense. They are silent regarding the hundreds of signatures that they hoped to toss out because they claimed, in their omniscience, to have knowledge that the signatures of the circulators were not genuine, or that the circulators did not actually appear before a notary. NO, they are completely silent about the onethousand objections that they made in BAD FAITH. After reviewing the petitions and finding no more that 800 invalid signatures, Flamm’s Flunkies should have thrown in the towel and called it a day. But, no, they had to go and fabricate a thousand more objections just to make us work like dogs and spend money on attorneys defending the good signatures. TIs too bad that the Trib gave them a platform to publish their disingenuous PR.

After reading Grabbe and MacDonald’s self-serving press release, you would think that we had bused in SEIU members from Chicago to circulate and sign the petition, when in fact most of the signatures that were invalidated were by people who lived in District 15 boundaries but were not actually registered to vote at the address listed. I personally looked at every single objection and I recall seeing a couple of signatures from people who lived in the wrong part of Hoffman Estates (District 54) one person from Mount Prospect and one from Wheeling who signed. Its too bad that nobody from the Trib called us to get the other side of the story. But that’s OK – Flamm’s Flunkies continue to alienate the thousands of living, breathing, registered voters who actually signed the petition. Keep up the good work!
