Windsor, IL. (ECWd) –
The Village of Windsor held an Electoral Board Hearing today and heard the objections to three candidates, with a fourth candidate withdrawing his petitions.
A decision should come next week in the follow-up meeting.
Some things of interest said in this hearing:
- We are not Chicago and need all the people we can running for office (@ 19 min in video)
- Small communities have a different standard with petition packets (starts @ 19:50 in the video)
Obviously, we disagree with both comments and insist that the law stands, no matter how large or small a community is.
We agree there is a difference in how courts have ruled on election objections, but those rulings tend to be aimed at the number of petition sheets, not the population of the local government.

Posted at 23:25h, 11 JanuaryI write this from my prison cell near Pekin, IL. In the 70’s when I ran for political office my whole plan was to work my way up to the big leagues and steal as much money as I could. My very first time I ran for office I filled out my paperwork in the wrong order and affixed it improperly. No one caught me then. This gave me the courage to embezzle millions from Fixon, IL. #LoveMyHorses #UpRiver #NoDogzInDixon

Posted at 09:17h, 09 January@ E Norma Stitz. Looks to me like you are the #asslicker cause you obviously lick the asses of those who willfully break the law and lie cheat and steal. You probably also support defunding the police and the whole Marxist/ Socialist agenda. No laws no consequences. I live in small town USA too and I can tell you first hand that once you give an inch on what is right and wrong the next thing you know it is a mile and Johnny would never do anything to hurt the community. Oh yes Johnny would cause it happened in my small town. Better yet go ask the citizens of Fixon il how wonderful Rita Crundwell was. She’s in prison now in case you didn’t know. This country is a mess right now because of ass lickers like you!

Posted at 23:03h, 09 JanuaryI agree with you completely. Your take is spot on. Three people that don’t know where to put a staple, or misnumber and misorder papers will most likely proceed to start embezzling and eventually drain the town of over 50 million. Apples to apples argument. Putting a staple in the wrong place is criminal just as much as that lady from Fixon, IL. I do think calling me an asslicker was overboard. I simply stated my rot licks it’s ass. #FixonorDixon #Marxism? #applestoapples

Posted at 23:58h, 08 JanuaryI was in Mr. Rogers class through school. How brave of him to step up and bring this to light. I believe Mr. Kraft said if no one would have brought this up the packets would have skated right through. These are fatal errors people. Do we really want a council member that has affixed the papers incorrectly or even left a date blank on a page serving the community? We need high IQ people like Mr. Rogers on that council. #breakingthelaw 🎶 #Fatalerror #wholetthedogsout

Posted at 23:42h, 08 JanuaryWay to go Watchdogs!!!! Just like my Rottweiler is trained and skilled, the “watchdogz” sniffed this threat to liberty out. Of course my Rot spends a lot of time barking at shadows, attacking butterflies, chasing its tail, and licking his own asshole. Way to go “Dogz”!!! #whosenext #asslicker #puppykisses

Posted at 23:17h, 08 JanuaryAt 38:04 I believe Mayor Tull opens the refrigerator and secures himself a bottle of drinking water. Could we please conduct an audit to identify if this water was purchased privately or if it was taxpayer subsidized. If it was taxpayer subsidized it makes sick to see his blatant disregard for the law. It might be possible he wasn’t aware he was being recorded during this possibly illegal act. #caughtintheact #justiceinWindsor #corruptwindsor

Posted at 23:03h, 08 JanuaryThank you for this showing of true patriotism. If we let things like stapling paperwork wrong and putting pages in the order slide, what’s next? We need brave soldiers like Mr. Rogers to stand up to this tyranny. I greatly look forward to your trivial pursuit of making the world right one small town council meeting at a time. Keep posting and keep up the good fight.

Posted at 11:10h, 08 January“I don’t care what you think” sounded like an attitude of the former Shelby county board chair, an un-elected position.

Posted at 23:28h, 08 JanuaryIt was very rude. How could someone say, “I don’t care what you think”? All bullshit aside that probably hurt someone’s feelings. Especially after you drove from like 45 minutes away to record this. It even sounded like he truly meant it. I mean you were just trying to interject yourself into something that you really didn’t need to. That’s true courage. #rude #hurtfeelings

Posted at 01:18h, 10 JanuaryI think wearing a university ball cap indoors while seated as an official member of an election petition hearing board is at least as uncouth as not removing your ball cap while standing for the national anthem. Cringe. And the member who scheduled the court recorder for 30 minutes really would have others believe the board was holding the objector to the same standard as an attorney while not scheduling enough time for public comment, an OMA standard.
