Tuesday, Nov. 8, is Election Day and I hope that you are planning to vote. In case you are undecided about the race for DuPage County Board chair or the DuPage County board member who will represent you, maybe I can help. As the late, great Speaker of the House, Tip O’Neill, was quoted to have said: “all politics is local”. The two candidates I am recommending live out strong family values and are dedicated to the safety, education and lifetime well-being of you and your family in DuPage County.
In my opinion, Greg Hart is the stellar candidate for the DuPage County Board chair position. Remember this: “Hart has heart!” I have had the privilege of co-chairing, with Greg, DuPage County’s Heroin and Opioid Prevention and Education (HOPE) Taskforce. He is a man of integrity, grace and honor. He has been endorsed by almost every township mayor throughout DuPage County and every former DuPage County board chair. I plan to vote for Greg because he is the best person for this job.
Likewise, Kari Galassi is my recommended choice to fill Greg’s soon-to-be-vacated seat on the DuPage County Board. After serving with Kari on Hinsdale Hospital’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit’s renovation project, I know that she is a compassionate leader. Kari is respected and trusted by people of influence because she is a can-do person. Our vote is safe with her. — Lanny Wilson, Hinsdale
