• We need to get partisan politics out of Cook County government.

• County government is supposed to the serve the people it represents, not partisan political insiders.

• Nonpartisan elections allow voters to fairly consider the issues and choose officials in government who represent their interests, not a political party’s.

• Candidates and policies should be judged on their merits, not on whether they have Republican or Democrat listed next them.

• To root out the corruption and cronyism that has dominated Cook County government for decades, all elected positions should be made nonpartisan.

• The drive for nonpartisan elections in Cook County complements the push for term limits on all elected officials in state government • Every level of government in Illinois needs to be cleaned up.

• At a time when government at all levels seems riddled with dysfunction, Cook County can make a clean break with business as usual and take partisanship out of the way we choose our county leaders.

• It’s a commonsense solution that will benefit every Cook County resident and empower voters over the political machine.

 • More than forty years of one party rule has taken a fiscal toll on Cook County residents, and this is our opportunity to level the playing field.
