Your Democratic nominee Lauren Staley-Ferry committed a federal crime and hasn't taken the time to return to the small business she had stolen from.
As a voter and concerned citizen, I believe you are as concerned as we are and ask you to vote for another candidate. For those who do not have the insight that Ferry had stolen a check from a former employer and forged his signature. When caught she fled the scene of the crime and she went on to continue moving. When these issue was brought to light, Ferry apologized, although not to the injured person, and there was no attempt to repay this debt, no intention to correct her wrong, rather she apologized and openly lamented how difficult it was to be confronted with her own mistakes.
This only goes to show a lack of responsibility for her actions let alone just how she might run the Will County clerks office, if she even can!
4 thoughts to consider before voting:
1. Ferry has perpetrated felony theft while our current County Clerk's office continues to be clean of such corruption.
2. Lauren has not repaid her stolen gains to her former boss.
3. Ferry might not be bondable to be the clerk due to her felony criminalrecord.
4. Mike Madigan dispatched his team to stand behind Ferry only showing this might lead to more issues for Will County
