To the Editor:

I am writing this letter to strongly encourage the public to support Clay Campbell in his bid for re-election as DeKalb County State’s Attorney.

It is not often that we get a public official with such dedication and tenacity. Everyone has always talked about the crime situation in DeKalb, or the corruption at Northern Illinois University, but he has actually had the courage to do something about it. The idea of replacing him with an attorney that believes that the traffic problems in our area are the greatest threat to the public safety is ludicrous.
