Congratulations, Tom! You are the reason we will be able to get rid of the current D65 Board. No incumbents are running. Maybe just maybe things can turn around.

I found this quote from the Evanston Now article funny: "Hailpern, a two-term board member, said he’ll talk more about his decision in a week or so."
Joey, seriously, nobody cares about your reason for deciding not to run. We're just happy that you're stepping aside.
I am a little worried about the fact that there are 17 people running and that we might see support for reform and fiscal responsibility minded candidates get diluted in such a large candidate field.
I think people will drop out. There are a non-zero number of people on the list who ran because they were concerned nobody else would and wanted to make sure the seats didn't go empty.

Not surprising that Joey is retiring.

How does it work if they drop out? Is their name still on the ballot? Will the two 'Opdykes' fuse into a single person?
Thursday, January 23: Last day to file a Withdrawal of Candidacy with the local election official or authority
As long as they dropout before 1/23 they won't be on the ballot. After 1/23, it is locked in.
