CHICAGO – NTUI Tax Villain of the Month Bill Brady called off some of his dogs late last week, allowing the Libertarian Party of Illinois to be on the ballot November 2, 2010. Although this is reason to celebrate, it is important to note that the Constitution Party is still being kept off the ballot by Republicans who do not want the additional competition.

There are five candidates for Governor on the November 2 ballot. They are Independent Scott Lee Cohen, Libertarian Lex Green, and the three major party candidates Brady (R), Quinn (D), and Whitney (G).

ROCKFORD–The President of Illinois’ largest taxpayer organization today named gubernatorial candidate, State Senator Bill Brady (R-44, Bloomington) the group’s August “Tax Villain of the Month.” Speaking at a news conference in Rockford, IL, Jim Tobin, President of National Taxpayers United of Illinois (NTUI), also distributed “wanted flyers” as he outlined why Brady had earned this dubious distinction.

Election office employees threw out tens of thousands of those bogus objections from Brady and the Republicans because the signatures were obviously valid.

Illinois Republicans should stop trying to throw candidates off the ballot for purely selfish reasons, resulting in disenfranchisement of voters and waste of taxpayer dollars, said Jim Tobin, President of National Taxpayers United of Illinois (NTUI).
