Public Theology: "The Clear Choice"

Dear Friends,

With only 18 days left until voters go to the polls, newspapers across Illinois are weighing in on the Democratic primary election. Already, Dan's earned the endorsements of the Northwest Herald, South Suburban News and Kane County Chronicle.

And this morning's Daily Herald called Dan "the clear choice" in the Democratic race for governor - giving him what might be his strongest endorsement yet. Touching on the need for a comprehensive solution to our state's numerous challenges, they write:

"In the Democratic primary, Comptroller Dan Hynes clearly is the candidate who best fits that charge."

...

"In his decade as comptroller, Hynes, 41, long has sounded the alarm about our spiraling debt and borrowing addiction...he has laid out specifics. They include $1.5 billion in spending cuts, firing some workers hired by former Gov. Rod Blagojevich, increasing cigarette and gambling taxes and closing corporate tax loopholes. He also wants to put a referendum on the fall ballot for a progressive income tax."

...

"We endorse Hynes as the much strong manager and leader for the Democrats. He sees the problems and has a detailed plan."

Thank you for all you do.
