My Thanks to You!
02-04-10Family, friends and supporters,
They say what doesn’t kill you only makes you stronger. We may not have won the primary, but we are definitely stronger.
Over 50,000 phone calls by volunteers
Over 5,000 signs on frozen lawns
And with the help of our networks of family, friends and neighbors, our hard work has made a difference; you have made a difference.
Unfortunately, it was not the difference we had hoped for, but it is a difference we can all be proud of.
We connected with over 42,000 voters; THAT’S HUGE!!
Today I am celebrating a race well run, new friendships and a new hope for change in Cook County Government.
While I won’t be representing the Republican Party against the Democratic “Machine” in November, it is my hope that you will support Roger Keats with the same energy that you have demonstrated on behalf of my campaign. Roger has pledged to work hard to fix the broken system that is Cook County government; we need to support his campaign to make that happen.
When I announced my candidacy I quoted Thomas Jefferson saying, “Every generation needs a new revolution”. Our revolution has begun and it will continue to grow as we head into the November election.
The Cook County Republican Party has many new members; many voters in this primary pulled a Republican ballot for the first time. And in November, we will pull the plug on the Democratic “Machine”—and end one-party rule here in Cook County and the State of Illinois.
THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
Sincerely,
John Garrido

01-05-10SCHILLER PARK – John Garrido released two bold initiatives to reform Cook County today to improve the systems for public safety and government ethics. His “Community and Corrections Initiative” and “Public Service Initiative” are the two most detailed policy platforms in those areas among all candidates for Cook County Board President.
“I see Cook County as having four obligations. Our government must keep the people safe, provide for a healthy community, tax and spend wisely, and meet a minimum standard of ethical decency. These final two proposals, added with my other two previous proposals, explain how I will meet those obligations,” said Garrido. Read More
