I care whether or not my elected officials are responsive to our needs. One thing I've always respected about Lauzen and Schmitz and Munson is they care about our area. And, they have a lot to show for it. That's why I'll keep supporting them... who cares about some stupid voter database?

Seems more like sour grapes to me and grasping at straws. Schmitz has plenty of influence, he's just focused on less petty things.

Tim Schmitz was telling people to vote for him because he's been there a long time and has influence, but when it comes to allowing a Republican candidate access to Voter Vault, he has no say? He can't have it both ways. Either he has influence with his party or he doesn't. Voter Vault is far more than just the information available at the clerk’s office.

Again, he is not part of any decision making process. Last time I checked, Krenz was a big boy and could do what other candidates have done for years: buy the info from the clerk's office. As stated earlier, in the whole scheme of things it is rather childish and silly to focus on something so irrelevant. Why would Schmitz do that? Again, he is not part of any decision making process.

LJ, Thanks for the information about the Voter Vault. I still think though that if Schmitz did not want to deny Voter Vault access to Krenz, he could have told the Illinois GOP to give Krenz that access. Do you know if he ever communicated that message to them? Grumpy, I don't disagree with you. I was just pointing out the challenge that she faces in the upcoming election. As a Republican, she has my support. BS, I'm sorry I don't really follow your comment. Which committeemen races are you talking about? Who is BS? Juniper, blogging is definitely about bias. And in fact, I think all media is biased, because people are biased. Better to be open about it then be insidious like the New York Times. Thanks for leaving comments, everybody.

Although, it does appear our RS doesn't really have a sense of what he or she is talking about... Perhaps if RS focused on reporting something a bit more unbiased, we'd actually have a pretty decent conversation going... As for me, I'm gonna go back to cleaning out my sock drawer. It's a whole lot more interesting, and a lot less full of crap. sugar, you mean RS, not BS. Although, it does appear our RS doesn’t really have a sense of what he or she is talking about…

Too bad people like BS lost their committeeman's race...we're really gonna be up a creek without their involvement now....(NOT!!)

I think she's a heck of a lot stronger than people take her for. May not always agree with her stance on the issues, do respect that she is reflective of her district.
