Why Sue’s Working to Elect the Next Governor of Illinois
Every week from now until November’s election, OFA volunteer Sue A. is taking time out of her busy schedule to help elect Democrat Pat Quinn as the next governor of Illinois.
Despite the long drive, Sue comes in to the Chicago office as often as she can to call voters and ask them to make their voices heard this year.
OFA Illinois shared why Sue’s passionate about electing Pat Quinn for governor and Sheila Simon for lieutenant governor:
"I'm Buy cheap online Provigil a lifelong Democrat, and I think that Pat Quinn is a very solid politician. I also had the opportunity to have lunch with Sheila Simon… I liked her father, and I think she's got a good background. I think she's very pro-women, pro-education, and has a good head to evaluate issues as they come up."
Sue’s commitment also comes from a realization of just how much is at stake this November. She's concerned about the election, especially the prospect of Republican Bill Brady becoming governor.
"His ideas on women's issues are scary. He's an extremist in my opinion."
Pat Quinn is moving Illinois in the right direction—signing the state’s first jobs bill in a decade and successfully getting companies like Ford and UPS to expand their local business. Thanks to the Governor's actions, the new fuel-efficient Ford Explorer is being built exclusively in Illinois, which will create 1,200 new jobs.
OFA Illinois will be out this weekend asking supporters to commit to vote for Pat Quinn, Sheila Simon, and other great candidates in November. Join in and find an event in your area.
