And stay out! Cross campaigner booted from Frerichs Treasurer launch event

SHARE And stay out! Cross campaigner booted from Frerichs Treasurer launch event

If you’re a campaign tracker for the opposition, don’t try to get into a Mike Frerichs press conference.

The Democrat was announcing his candidacy for State Treasurer this morning in Chicago when a campaign worker for the Tom Cross for Treasurer team showed up. (Cross is running in the Republican primary for the office).

The red-faced, snow-laden worker pamphleted from the sidewalk after he was kicked out.

That’s cold!

But hey, it’s a balmy 9 degrees in Chicago this morning.
