Chicago public schools have been tested and are among the worst in the state of Illinois. DuPage County public schools have scored alongside the best in the state of Illinois.

Felony crimes and murder (figured per every 100,000 of population) is 10 times higher in Chicago than neighboring DuPage County.

Chicago's tax (at 10.5 percent) is the highest in the country. Cities within DuPage County have a tax of about 7.5 percent.

Democrats are trying to expand their base into DuPage County. As noted above, the Democrats have failed miserably on three of the peoples' most important issues.

I ask ... why would anyone vote for a Democrat in DuPage County?
