With 12 days to go until Illinois' Groundhog Day Primary Election the self-described grassroots Alliance For Agriculture, Land and Water issued its recommendations Tuesday in County Board contests.
President Patrcia Kennedy said the endorsement were based on the candidate's pledges "to work for preservation of our natural resources, our fresh water supply and our prime farmland." ALAW asked candidates to complete a survey about their stands on land use, water resources and "transparency in government." On the last the group has a proposal before the County Board mandating financial disclosure for all employees and officeholders.
ALAW's picks were: Donna Kurtz (R) District Two; Barb Wheeler (R) District 3; John Jung, Jr. (R) District 5; Frank Wedig, (Green Party) District 5; Diane Evertsen (R) District 6; and Mary McCann (R) District 6. Sixteen Board candidates have submitted ALAW's disclosure form although few had anything to disclose.
