DEAN FOR ILLINOIS
Ad copy
No one talked about your budget tonight. No one talked about - Ending trickle down economics; - Spurring American innovation and small business growth; - Raising the minimum wage; or - Lowering costs. This government is a joke. But jokes should be funny, and this Republican government is somehow both the least and most funny thing I have ever seen. That’s why I am running for US Senate in Illinois. Check out my campaign website - dean4il.com. On March 17 — vote Jonathan Dean, lucky number 7 on the ballot.
