Organizers were disappointed with the approximately eight to ten organizations that participated in the march, due to the low attendance. There was a lack of leadership in participating organizations.
The staff listed on page 3 of the paper are the liberal/ corruption/ cronyism Republicans well to the left of the GOP candidate for SOS, Enriquez, who is allied with St Sen Lauzen, our most conservative friend in Springfield.
Bill Wyatt, Kane County Board member and husband of UnaVoz photographer Gabrielle Wyatt, is the leader of this liberal faction. He is/was Aurora Twp chair but recently lost for precinct committeeman to a person in the anti-corruptio faction of Kane County that is led by Lauzen.
Gabrielle Wyatt, Falcon, Salcedo, etal remain as precinct committeemen.
Just thought it helps to know the factions. Enriquez is allied with the good guys against the bad guys where it counts (IMO).
Aurora is not the 2nd largest city in IL.
Aurora is in Borealis, isn’t it?
What march? Tea Party? Cinco De Mayo? What are you talking about???
My mistake. I thought it was Naperville.
wpin, sorry, I thought the link to the paper made it in. Try
The article on page 2 is mostly pictures with bilingual comments below the pictures.
Lurker, Some people forget the west half of Naperville Twp is Aurora.
Yes, it is now.
All the once empty farm land now *mostly* has houses and townhouses on it. And they expanded their borders by 'taking' some surrounding unincorporated areas.
an aside: We did the same in Woodridge. Our Mayor, a very sharp guy, gobbled up empty, unincorporated land, that went all the way to Lemont. That empty land is now an Industrial Park and brings in a lot of property tax money. So our Village taxes haven't been raised in years.
And Naperville and Plainfield, IL (Ground Zero for Tornadoes) did the same thing.
Thanks for the clarification... :)
Actually, yes it is. Kind of an unknown.
I think Enriquez’ faults are exaggerated. I’ll be voting for him and against senile democrat Jesse White.
Yup it overtook Rockford some time ago. But after the 2000 census when Rockford was still in #2 by a few thousand.
the wyatt’s have no stinking coalition, they are alone and a pair of nobodies.
besides, who cares about them, Robert Enriquez still is pro-amnesty liberal even if the wyatt’s were, and Enriquez is running as Republican Statewide candidate!
The only true Latino Republican in Aurora is John M. Aguilar. He’s a Statewide Commissioner and the highest ranking Hispanic Republican holding public office in the state of Illinois…
what is the IL GOP going to do to promote our highest ranking Hispanic Republican in the 4state? It seems that it’s “forgotten” that we have an experienced Hispanic Republican official and is not being used or called on. Besides, John has been involved for many years longer than anybody else
All this is fact....
Aurora
You joined 3 seconds before writing this post, just to write this post? And don’t have a home page? Your talking points sound a lot like those of someone not from Aurora.
Wyatt’s have at least 13 people in their coalition; but not enough to win for precinct committeeman. He clearly lost due to supporting cronyism which costs taxpayers big buciks and nothing more.
In Bill’s stupid choice to run in the Republican primary for mayor, he came in second to Irvin with half the votes of Irvin, but still with 10 times more votes than the anti-illegal Republican candidate, Cunningham, who also made the stupid choice Wyatt made of splitting the Aurora GOP for no good reason.
I’ve heard numerous people from Aurora say that they were going to vote for Cunningham ... until he came out so vocally against illegals. Then the switched to Irvin.
Maybe recently there has been a shift in sentiment of conservative ReEpublicans that I have not yet detected. But certainly in all elections of the past 7 years the anti-illegal position has been a loser for the GOP.
“spintreebob”
You obviously have something against Wyatt, so if you want to keep trashing them… Go for it, I could care less, they are out and gone.
On the other hand, we’re stacked with Robert Enriquez going around the state carrying the Republican flag as the only Hispanic Republican leader. Enriquez is pro-amnesty, whether you like it or not. That is fact. And if Senator Lauzen supports Robert, as you indicated, then Senator Lauzen must support amnesty as well. And you obviously support Enriquez and his amnesty debacle.
The Illinois GOP’s primary responsibility is to promote other Hispanic Republicans like John M. Aguilar. He’s the only true Hispanic Republican and has been involved the most and the longest.

You fail to recognize that pro-amnesty is the traditional Republican position. Reagan was pro-amnesty and that was no coincidence.
Actually the traditional Republican position is CAPITALISM: LET THE FREE MARKET DECIDE.
For decades Pat Buchanan was ridiculed by conservative talk radio as a voice in the wilderness on immigration as he was the only conservative/Republican of any note with that position.
Then post-911 when the unemployment rate was extremely low Tancredo pushed HR4437. It would change being in the USA without the permission of nanny from a minor misdemeanor less serious than a parking ticket into a major felony. HR4437 lost. Being in the USA without permission of nanny is still a minor misdemenaor.
But HR4437 was used to build the pro-illegal demonstrations, a movement that had previously been asleep. In reactive mode to the pro-illegals, the anti-illegals developed their movement which previously had not existed beyond Pat Buchanan and the Planned Parenthood-Population Control people.
At first when conservative talkradio received calls from anti-illegal voices they blew off those callers. But as the grassroots movement continued to build, talkradio realized that they could exploit the issue for their ratings.
Conservative talkradio did a 180 on the issue. (Three national hosts who are close friends did the same 180 in the same 24 hours.)
AR, your outrage at Enriquez holding the Reagan positin, the traditional Republican position just does not fly.
In 2003, when the Illinois legislature passed a bill that states that illegal aliens may attend state universities and pay in-state tuition, Sen. Lauzen was the only senator who voted no.
