Why is Mike Bendas running for
Congress?Because I have
served this great nation for 30 years and
I see incompetence, a shortage of
leadership, a lack of vision and total
fiscal irresponsibility. My West Point
foundation makes service a true priority,
and it is time to make a difference.
It is time to serve again!

Thank you Everyone!!
I want to thank everyone
involved in this election!
The Republicans did very
well nationally, fairly
well in Illinois (captured
3-4 Congressional seats
but may have lost the
Gubernatorial race), but
things stopped at the Cook
County line. Only
Dan Patlak won in Cook
County, and he will do a
great job.
Personally
I am disappointed but not
shocked, Congressman
Lipinski had a 20 to 1
funding advantage plus a
huge name recognition
advantage.
The team that worked on my
campaign was exceptional,
dedicated and
professional. I want
to especially thank those
who hit the streets, stood
at METRA stations before
the sun came up, put up
signs, set up gatherings
and so on.
We are analyzing the race,
the lessons learned and
looking to the future.
Keep up the spirit, there
is a future that is bright
now that the House of
Representatives is in the
hands of fiscally
responsible conservatives.
Thanks again, and look to
the future.

Current
Activities
In addition to helping the
Worth Township GOP get out
candidate information, Mike
attended the Oak Lawn
pumpkin festival. He talked
to over a hundred folks,
the vast majority were very
interested in an option to
Lipinski. Many people took
multiple flyers to hand out
to friends. The
LaGrange/Western Springs
group was very active
getting signs out, as was
the Oak Lawn group. You
will be seeing more signs
soon. Mike will be at a
Metra station during the
morning rush hour every day
from now to the election.
We can always use a few
more volunteers, call
708.821.8399 or Email
mike.bendas@bendasforcongress.com
to help out.

If you think that I am too
“stiff”, etc. put a comment
on my Facebook page. By the
way, if you have not become
a Facebook fan, you should
do so since the campaign
will start to heat up and
there will be more and more
good information. All you
have to do is say that you
“Like” the page and you are
a fan!
