Lauzen is hardly a saint and voters don’t look to politicians for their moral compass. He’s stumbled plenty of time and he has served long enough. We need term limits and new blood – not career politicians.

If most Republican leaders had the same values, wisdom, courage and care for their constituents as Chris Lauzen, our nation would not be in the mess it is now. All this talk about Chris not bending so he needs to be replaced. What is it he’s supposed to bend towards? More taxes? More abortions? Change the definition of marriage? More power to the government? As noted in other comments on this site, Chris has done much to improve the lives of his constituents. A vote to replace Chris Lauzen is a vote for bending towards the desires of the corrupt leadership now in office. Why else would anyone want to replace this man who is steadfast in support of his people.

Appreciate hearing another side. We’ve heard plenty of trash talk but the papers are reluctant to print anything that helps readers make a truly informed choice. I personally don’t know Sean or much about him but this letter at least shows a better perspective. Politics is too much about trashing people and not enough about electing people who can effectively move us ahead.

I applaud Val Michels for putting her feelings into print. Sean has worked hard for Sugar Grove and will work hard as a state senator. I wish that people would lay off the “bid the engineering projects”. Service contracts are awarded on qualifications, not fees. Engineering Enterprises is qualified. They were serving as Village Engineers before sean was ever village president. it is time for these comments about their fees to end.

I agree it is time for a new voice, but not in the State Senate. We need the new voice in Sugar Grove so the village can actually start moving in a positive direction. With Sean gone, the village can stop feeding the pockets of his family through EEI and start saving some money by actually bidding out projects. Enough is enough. Citizens of Sugar Grove need to wake up and stop electing Sean into positions of power.
