Well, would you imagine a double standard for elected officials from the Lake County Election Board?

Karen Freeman Wilson, Gary's mayor campaign finance records were found sufficiently amiss that it got hit with a $2,200 fine. Apparently some believe there were sufficient grounds to refer the misdeeds to the County Prosecutor for investigation. Had that been referred, we all know how that would have turned out...... :?

http://www.nwitimes.com/news/local/lake/gary-mayor-s-campaign-flunked-at-math/article_d7e8f450-150e-5640-9545-dfc52ac3c5fe.html

But a concern regarding Hammond's Mayor Thomas McDermott Jr and his campaign finances was heard before the LCEB late last year. Did Jr have enough influence over this Board's members, so that his recent hearing before the board would be swept under the table, white washed. Didn't one member work for his daddy; someone work for the HWD, and did JR have influence in assuring his friends get appointed to the board?

Naw, don't answer that.

Then there was some recent concern, by the Indiana State Board of Accounts, Jr placed $16,000,000 of your tax dollars in uninsured bank accounts. Had the bank failed, that money would be uninsured, and thru recent legislation could be held by the creditors of the bank. Yep, Jr stated he put those tax dollars in an uninsured bank account, reportedly so da money would gather a bit more %, or so Jr said.

Now is there a coincidence, do a couple of Lake County Election Board members have association with area banks? Did some of that $16,000,000 sit in one of those banks the board members have associations with? Was it placed in that specific bank to help the financial institution's bottom line during a period where US Banks were failing on a national basis?

Naw, nothing here, as one of McDermott's biggest supporter has so frequently written here, nothing here keep moving on.....

Or Just lake county politics, one friend helping another with assuring public money was at risk for the sake of a higher interest rate?

I wonder if Mr. Capp received that correspondence from one of Tommie's recent ex-friend?

Karen looked so upset walking of the the LCEB hearing, looked like she felt it was her money not that of her campaign contributors?
