Tell how unimportant the Democratic vote in Algonquin Township is, consider this forum which was held in Chicago–as far south in the 9th District as McHenry County is west.
Our home is on the very western edge of District 9.
Evanston Now has the best report on the event.
It covers where campaign contributions originated and positions on Israel.
Not comprehensive unfortunately.
Illinois Political has more information:
Participants were “State Sens. Laura Fine and Mike Simmons, Evanston Mayor Daniel Biss, Skokie School Board 73.5 member Bushra Amiwala, political commentator Kat Abughazaleh and former FBI hostage negotiator Phil Andrew. “
“The candidates largely agree on policy and would likely vote similarly to the longtime incumbent they hope to replace, Rep. Jan Schakowsky. Still, the forum highlighted differences in priorities and governing style.”
