Okay, maybe I panicked a little early

I live to fight another day.

I just had to make it into the top two-

Alderperson District 5 11 Polls Reporting out of 11 1824 Total Votes With 100% of the Vote Reported

Candidates	Votes	%
Kurt A. Sinclair	816	44.73
Kathy Carpenter	571	31.3
JoEllyn M. Storz	429	23.51
Write-in 40	8	0.43

This battle turned into a Democrat vs. Republican- which should never have happened.

I do not know how many people I have talked to that said "You are the Republican, right?" Every person that asked me that always turned out to be a Democrat. But most were willing to have the conversation.

I am very excited.

I promise you this, no one will outwork me.

Just as good, my friend Dave Bogdala made it thru the 17th district. He did very well in fact.

Alderperson District 17 12 Polls Reporting out of 12 1649 Total Votes With 100% of the Vote Reported
