Thank You for Your Interest in My Campaign!

I am running to represent District 5 on the county board to bring a strong conservative voice to DuPage. I have been hearing from my neighbors and citizens of District 5 that they are frustrated and upset with the "politics as usual" and "status quo" way of doing things that has lead to grid lock and ineffectiveness of government from the school board to the White House.

I, as a communications professional, have listened well to the complaints and fears of the constituants of DuPage County and the idea that multiple term, corporate baught, establishment politicians are not truly representing the best interests of the people they are resresenting. I know there are some good and some bad people in any organization, but the overall feeling is that the people can't trust the "life term" politicians because they gain too much individual power and power corrupts.

I have been asked by my network of friends to run for office and bring my steadfast honesty, unwavering loyalty, conservative principals, morals, negotiating and creative problem solving skills to the county board, so they may be assured that under my watch and leadership the decisions made and voted on will have their interests in mind and not my own.

When I am elected I promise to spend my time thoroughly looking at the fiscal and policy issues from a 99% point of view and not as a political mover trying to win his next campaign or step up to his next aspiraton. I pledge to not take a pension from the county for a part-time position. I pledge to concentrate my efforts to help small business by limiting taxes, building infrastructure and making zoning decisions with minimal impact on the small business owners.

I also promise to keep a keen eye on the hiring of administration staff and wastefull spending of each county department and commission to minimize lost revenue and unnessecary spending. My auditing and management experience will benefit in the evalution of the audit process and tools used to assure effective and efficient use of tax dollars.

I ask that you cast your vote for the strong and uncorrupted voice of the people Paul J. Santucci during early voting February 27th thru March 15 or on election day March 20th. I will not let you down and I will keep the county accountable for it's decisions and policies!

Sincerely,

Paul J. Santucci
Candidate for DuPage Couty Board
