Thank you to all my supporters and voters. The struggle continues.
Alberto Bocanegra On behalf of all our campaign staff, I want to thank all the people who came out and voted for me, February 22. I want to thank all the people who donated their time and their money to work for positive change in the 12th Ward. We did not achieve the results we expected. We shall analyze what we have done right and what we need to do better. We shall help other campaigns dedicated to making progressive change in Chicago, in Cook County, in Illinois, and across the country. I will continue to struggle for progress and justice for the people of the 12th Ward along with the other dedicated people who have become involved in my campaign. Some of the campaigns we intend to emphasize include: * Fighting any plans to impose a Walmart on the ward which would devastate the small businesses on 47th Street. * Struggling for better funding for mass transit and improved service for the ward. * Working with neighborhood organizations to stop the violence in the streets. Feel free to call me with your concerns and suggestions. 773-981-5119.
