It is time to vote for change in House 81 by voting for Keith Matune.

The self-righteousness is dripping from incumbent House District 81 Representative Ron Sandack and his supporters.  Sandack will not speak the truth about his record as a Republican or as a man of his word.  That is clear, because of the Matune campaign, and residents, pointing out his consistent lying on key issues.

On taxes, as a school board member, Matune has a documented record of voting against tax hikes. While council member and Mayor of Downers Grove, over eight years, Sandack voted for EVERY tax and fee increase, and borrowed money needlessly, that taxpayers are paying interest in on, that still has not been spent or repaid. 

Sandack sponsored the county rain tax, which will be on top of the universally unpopular village rain tax he helped shepherd into existence, during his time as Mayor, in Downers Grove. Taxes on top of taxes thanks to Ron Sandack, the guy who says he is against taxes. Does that sound like a guy you can trust?

All he and his supporters can do is launch a vile and malicious personal attack on his opponent.  That speaks to your rotten core, Ron Sandack, that you seek to destroy a challengers life instead simply win an election. Now Matune is a great family man, a great teacher, and a great Republican District 99 Board member.  Sounds like a guy who went to college and made something of himself.  

But that is no matter for the Sandack true believers.  Sandack and his supporters want him crucified.  Sandack has always run these kinds of dirty malice-filled campaigns - another reason to turn him out of politics completely.

Please join me voting for Keith Matune for House District 81 representative in the Republican primary.
