Congratulations to Laura Reigle on a Resounding Success!
We received over 25% of the vote against a 16 year incumbent!
This outstanding accomplishment by Laura affirms that politics as usual is hurting Illinois taxpayers. Illinoisians are learning the truth and voting for change.
Laura's success in local education reform and now Illinois representation is bringing change. The future looks bright for more change to come.
Thank you for running a clean hard fought campaign
Well done Laura!
Citizen for Laura Reigle
Urgent must read
Although this may not be the county you live in it will similarly affect all collar counties of Chicago.
Absolute Truth
A 16 year incumbent has proven he is not capable of changing Illinois....he is not the solution...he is part of the historical problem.
Even if you voted for Jim Durkin in the past, he has proven he is not capable of change.

Laura's Daily Thought February 24, 2012 Being a mother of three children ages 23, 11, and 8. I have a very strong feelings about education. I believe every child needs and deserves a quality education. Education is the foundation that will keep our country successful. After speaking today with an individual in the education system, I felt it was vital to share what I learned. Public school in Illinois are required to issue ISAT tests (Illinois Standard Achievement Test). And the parents receive the test results for that test. Many school districts also purchase some sort of additional testing such as MAP (Measures of Academic Progress) and the parents will receive a copy of those test results. But what most parents do not realize is that public schools also administer other tests that are used for internal purposes. These tests can be Dibels (Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Skills) For those of you who already know this great. There are a lot of parents who do not know how many tests or what tests their children take at school. The purpose of my comments today is to make parents aware of these internal tests. And that you have a right to request copies of the results. Parents should be given copies of them automatically this way everyone is working together to do what's right for each individual child. Practice ISAT Test's for 3rd - 8th Grade. http://metacat2.com/iltestlinks.html This section will be updated Monday thru Friday.
