My wife and I have known Chris Kennedy for more than ten years. Besides being a steady friend, we're impressed by Chris's ability to manage times of adversity with both energy and good judgment.
Chris Kennedy hopes to replace the Lake County State's Attorney in the November election. I think he is greatly qualified to do so.
Because of a series of very poor decisions, the Lake County State's Attorney has become the target of some unflattering national media attention. These poor decisions have resulted in costly lawsuits against the State's Attorney Office that Lake County taxpayers will have to pay for.
Lake County voters have a clear choice this year. They can vote for the status quo. Or voters can elect Chris Kennedy -- an true independent leader -- to restore the integrity and reputation of our State's Attorney's Office. I will be voting for Chris Kennedy. I hope you will too.
