The difference between a lawyer and economist

(Opening statement, League of Women Voters Evanston forum)
 
Like all the candidates running for an Evanston office, I have lived in Evanston for a long period of time, have been involved in the community and am eager and willing to serve you in elective office. I would like to take this opportunity to explain why I am a unique candidate for 7th ward alderman.

Firefighters Endorsement Process (by John Zbesko)

Since the issue of the the firefighters union endorsements has flared up, I would like to describe my interview with the director of the firefighters' PAC.  I was eager to win their endorsement. I know several firefighters who are Evanston residents and I have coached some of their children and they have coached some of mine. I appreciate the major efforts they have made in helping elect Democratic candidates to county, state, and national office.

Should residents avoid those endorsed by the Evanston Fire fighters PAC?

At the Mayorial forum Liz Tisdahl stated she recieved $500 and support of the fire fighters local 742 PAC, who are helping her. ( see Evanstonnow web site for a video )
 
Also Jane Grover has on her web site  stated she has been endorsed by this group. 
 
I do not know who they are endosing inthe 6th ward.
( maybe some one will coment?)
