Ogle, Lee Counties plan to reopen sooner.

Our know-nothing 90th District state rep, tea-partier Tom Demmer, is leading the pack on this plan.

He is a thirty-four year old know-nothing republican. We have numerous cases in Ogle County. We have had deaths. We have a meat packing plant in Rochelle, and an increasing number of cases in Dixon. Dixon, whose hospital is closest to me, has only six ICU beds.

JB is doing a great job with our state's covid response. He updates us with a daily news conference. It is professional, unlike trump's news conferences. He leaves the medical questions to the professionals.

If you live in one of these counties, call this wet-behind-the-ears Demmer and tell him you do not like his cheap political stunt. His Dixon office: 815-561-3690. Springfield: 217-782-0535.

I have felt relatively safe sheltering at home as much as possible. I will not feel safe if we open up prematurely.

Demmer has an excellent opponent for November. His name is Seth Wiggins. A severe crimp has been put in his campaign right now. He is in Chicago, serving in the National Guard. He is doing some actual good.

We need some changes here.
