November 2020 General Election Questionnaire from Illinois Representative District 66 Candidate Suzanne Ness

Name: Suzanne Ness Position for which you are a candidate: Illinois Representative District 66 Why are you seeking this position? After the 2016 election, I went to the first Women’s March in Washington DC. I was inspired by all the speakers there and specifically Michael Moore.

Name: Verner Tepe Position for which you are a candidate: Kane County Board District 22 Why are you seeking this position? My wife and I thoroughly enjoy our life in Kane County and we have been able to become engaged in local civic and volunteer activities. As an Elgin Township Trustee for the past 3 years I am proud of the contributions that I have made. Moving on to the County Board would afford me the opportunity to bring the same dedication and enthusiasm that I have to Kane County. What experience and background do you have which qualifies you [...]
