In 103rd House District: Naomi Jakobsson

Tuesday October 14, 2008

Voters in Champaign-Urbana should return state Rep. Naomi Jakobsson to the Illinois House.

We don't always agree with her but we believe voters in the 103rd House District would be better off with Naomi Jakobsson back in the House for two more years. Her knowledge of the issues before the Legislature, her experience and her forthrightness make her vastly superior to her challenger, 21-year-old Frank Calabrese, a University of Illinois student. Calabrese has been unable to offer a good reason for voters to choose him, other than he's not a Democrat. Again this year we find ourselves disappointed with the electoral option presented by the Republican Party.
