Attention Cook County IL residents!

I will cross post this, but I thought I'd get your attention here:

ACTION ALERT: Please Take 15 Seconds & Vote AGAINST Cook County Sales Tax Increase!
If you got our Alert email last week or you've been keeping up with the local news, COOK COUNTY is planning to raise the sales tax to 10.25% in November. This will have a negative effect on the lives of consumers in Illinois and on retail businesses, as this will make our sales tax rate the HIGHEST in the country.

Please take 15 seconds to call Todd Stroger's office and petition the
increase on the tax! CALL [phone]
You don't have to leave your name, so it's completely anonymous. Press option 1, then option 2, and then VOTE AGAINST INCREASE (OPTION 2).
Please do this now...what do have to lose (other than your money)?

4. How binding is this "vote"?

I find it hard to believe Todd listens to anyone anyway.

6. I too find it hard to believe, but since it only takes a few seconds I figured it

was worth a shot.
