New York activist Al Sharpton is coming to Lake County with his National Action Network. The reason given for coming to Lake County is the number of shootings of Blacks in Waukegan and North Chicago by police.
This is just one more example of the Democratic Party wanting to change Lake County from mostly Republican to Democratic control. Maybe they don't like that the Lake County County Board has been running a balanced budget, without any scandal. That just makes their neighbor to the south look bad. The population of Cook County is dropping, while Lake and other counties are still on the upswing. That just weakens the power base of Cook County, not a good thing for the Democrats. So instead of fixing their own house, it makes more sense to just take over your neighbor's house.
If the Democratic Party of IL. is such a great thing to belong to, why are they trying to get rid of the Governor they helped to elect and why would the Lake County Sheriff switch to the Republican Party? Maybe Al Sharpton should work on Cook County before coming to a county that does work for the people.
