Carol Sente for state House 59th seat

I don't know much about Elliott Hartstein except that he's been a politician for 30 years and likes to raise taxes whenever he wants to do anything.

I've heard a lot of promises from politicians when they charge you more and want you to let them take your money, but they never come true, like making the tollways free.

Hartstein actually wants to build more tollways and has been going all the way up to Round Lake to try to get a new tollway built there. What's he doing all the way up there when there're businesses struggling in his town, Buffalo Grove? They could use his help, but instead he's trying to promote his pet projects because when he gets an idea in his head he won't shake it until he gets his way and doesn't listen to what the residents have to say.

We don't need more politicians like Hartstein in our government, and we certainly don't need more tollways, taxes and fees. He wants to raise our taxes during a recession - that doesn't make any sense.

Please do not vote for Hartstein for state representative. We have a great opportunity to elect Carol Sente instead. She's not a politician and she'll actually talk to you about what she's working on and listen. Help me change business as usual politics like what Hartstein represents. Vote for Sente.
