Irreconcilable Politics

Supporting Jeanne Ives for Sixth Congressional District race

It’s awfully easy to be an arm-chair quarterback in Illinois politics. Everyone has an opinion. But what moderate suburban women decide to do November 3 in the Sixth Congressional district race will have serious consequences for years to come.
Illinois voters have been repeatedly “sacked” in the pocket book, and our standard of living is far from a touchdown but a touch back for the Springfield elite! Our Democrat elected officials are fumbling our future. It’s fourth down, Democrats have reigned over us for decades, and what’s the score? Time to punt toward liberty, justice and an acknowledgement of decades of repeated failures on policy and leadership and pension reform.
For constituents in the sixth Congressional district; the choices are clear, legislative bondage or moving toward less federal government control on every single issue from taxes to e-learning. Pollsters and pundits tell us that the election will hinge on the who wins the support of moderate suburban women. But does this voting block have all the facts on policy positions to make the best informed choice? I am one such supporter who is backing Ives. Top of mind issues for women are health care, safe homes, schools, and a prosperous community that provides economic opportunity, free will, and business creation. The freedom to make decisions for your life and family. That’s the choice. The radical leftist agenda is a poison to our way of life. What does Casten offer.. health, school, sports and economic lockdowns! Ives signs are continuously defaced with nasty graffiti and Casten’s rap and video posts on women are wholly offensive. His moral conduct on the public stage speaks volumes. California just passed a pedophile law? Is Illinois next?
Casten wins the carnival prize on taxing, fossil fuels, climate change, the Green New Deal, health care, defunding police and rezoning suburbia with your tax dollars. Ives has stated she will oppose President Trump if she disagrees with him. Ives is a Republi- “CAN”, and not con and will put Illinois families in the legislative driver’s seat. Wise women know the future of our State and our children are on the ballot! What do you have to lose, the answer is everything!

So think twice, and then vote IVES!
