Franks hasn't made good on promises
With a move that surprised many McHenry County Republicans, Jack Franks made good on his promise to withdraw from the 63rd House District race. Let's not forget, however, that Jack Franks has not always made good on his promises.
In 1998 Jack Franks made a pledge to serve only three terms as State Representative, but he failed to term limit himself and Franks is currently serving his 9th term in the Assembly.
In 2014 Jack Franks was quoted in the Northwest Herald, "I can promise I'm not running for county chairman." McHenry County residents know that to be a lie.
One promise kept out of three isn't a bad record, right?
Did we really expect more from a career politician and Chicago Democrat like Jack Franks?
