Will 5th District Republican Candidate Rosanna Pulido Be on The Ballot for the March 3rd Primary Election?
Rosanna Pulido, founder of the Illinois Minutemen Project, and Republican candidate for the IL-5th Congressional District, announced today that a hearing will take place TOMORROW, THURSDAY FEBRUARY 5TH at the Cook County Board of Elections. The hearing begins at 9:30AM. The Board will determine if the challenge to her signatures will be upheld or dismissed and whether her name will appear on the Primary Election Ballot. Pulido collected over six hundred signatures, far more than the required 319 signatures. But 416 of her signatures were challenged, with many of those challenges suspicious. Such political machinations are allowed by current Illinois law. In what can be best described as a personal vendetta, the challenge of Pulido’s signatures was initiated by none other than Joshua Hoyt, of the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights. Hoyt’s challenge included incorrect calculations, blank signature lines, and, by his own admission, was initiated solely to derail Mrs. Puli
