Coattails

Saturday I got two pieces of mail related to the city council race in my ward (9). Both were endorsing the challenger Steve Dove. One, a colorful flier, was from Raymond Poe. The other, a mass mailing letter, was from former Illinois governor Jim Edgar. Jim Edgar has a favorite in the Springfield Ward 9 race? I mean, other than Dove being a Republican, why would I believe Edgar gives a shit? I barely care. Maybe Dove and Edgar are BFFs but somehow I doubt it. Did anyone living in another ward get this letter on behalf of their Republican aldermanic candidate?

Interesting. This is the first I've heard of an Edgar letter in any ward race. You should scan it in and post it if there's anything interesting in it.
