  • I’m opposed to the idea of a data center in downtown Blue Island. Blue Island needs to prioritize investment that creates jobs and is an asset to our city, not an eyesore that drains resources and does not give back to our community.

  • I am disgusted by the reports of unsafe & unsanitary conditions in schools in District 130.

Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
