We are in the final leg of the 2022 Midterm Election season. This has traditionally been the time when the League of Women Voters hold forums showcasing candidates for questioning by the public. This year was to be no different until a group of local Republican candidates decided to forego the traditional, non-partisan forums. By rejecting participation in the forums they are not only denying the public the opportunity to ask them questions, they are denying the public the opportunity to ask questions of their Democratic opponents too.
Fox Valley Moxie and the Dundee Township Democrats believe that candidates should always be willing and anxious to answer the voters’ questions, so we’re holding “The Voters Deserve Answers Forum”!
The candidates who will be at the forum and ready to answer your questions include:
Suzanne Ness, House Rep. District 66, Linda Robertson, House Rep. District 65, Ted Penensis, County Board District 16, Courtney Boe, Kane County Board District 21, Cherryl Strathmann, Kane County Board, District 20, Vern Tepe, Kane County Board, District 22, Chris Kious, County Board District 23, and Jarett Sanchez, County Board District 24.
We welcome you to submit questions for the candidates to: foxvalleymoxie@gmail.com
We cannot guarantee that all questions submitted will be asked.

THEY HAD OUR BACKS. NOW LET’S HAVE THEIRS.
Join us for our 4th annual Jump for Vets in honor of Veteran’s Day!
Why Jump?
Because we’re saving lives through cutting-edge PTSD Treatment
Suicides among the veteran population are rising again and currently 17 veterans take their own life every single day. This is a staggering statistic and Rags of Honor1 is the only veteran non-profit actively funding a procedure called a Stellate Ganglion Block, which has proven to greatly reduce, or in most cases completely eliminate, severe Post-Traumatic Stress in over 83% of its recipients. The $1800 procedure is not covered by insurance or the VA, but BECAUSE OF JUMPERS LIKE YOU, we have successfully funded over 20 procedures!
After you register, create your personal fundraising page, share it with friends and family, and post it on social media! If you can’t jump with us, you can still create a fundraising page and support our vets with the donations you receive!
Family-Friendly: All ages and abilities welcome!
- 8:00am: Doors open / Live DJ
- 8:30-9am: Special Guest! Learn jump roping tricks and tips with Rachel Jablow, founder of Get Roped!
- 9:00-10:15am: Jump!
- We’ve got you covered: Jump ropes, water, coffee, and snacks will be provided, and parking is free (lot H)!
