Will County District 3: Dralle, Hart, McPhillips

We endorse Republicans Anne Dralle, Suzanne Hart and Laurie McPhillips for the three positions from District 3 on the Will County Board.

Dralle, of Lemont, is a small-business owner and the only incumbent of the three first elected in 1998.

Hart, of Naperville, has a strong background both for regular functions of the county and its duties overseeing the forest district.

And McPhillips, of Plainfield, has experience with the county as recorder of deeds and director of operations to the county chief executive.

With that experience, we feel the three are best prepared for the challenges the county faces in these tough fiscal times.

Also running are Democrats Diane Benjamin and Anil Saxena.
