We have a rare opportunity to set ambitious priorities in economic development, health and safety, and disaster mitigation by leveraging the $7.5 million in cannabis funding that has the potential to significantly impact life in our community. This is the time to think big, collaborate creatively, and build the capacity that we need to achieve long-term goals and new priorities. I intend to make absolutely sure that these tax-revenue funds are used as the voters intended, to elevate life in Lake County for all our residents.
It has been an exciting journey these past few years, and an absolute pleasure meeting so many of you and listening to your ideas, concerns and priorities. I want to thank everyone who has supported me through this journey, from across District 5 and countywide, to our state electeds. My campaign has been 100-percent powered by local volunteers who also believe in the power of our community, the bright future that lies ahead, and my ability to lead.
This is an awesome responsibility, and I promise you that I am ready to serve and fully committed to doing everything necessary to make Lake County stronger, safer and more vibrant than ever.
I would be honored to win your vote on Nov. 3.

As president of the board of directors, Bill’s leadership was instrumental in saving Lakeside Hospital from bankruptcy. His actions helped preserve local medical services for thousands of Lake County residents.
Bill ran a successful local pharmacy business for 40 years – providing the kinds of personal service you don’t get at a corporate chain drug store.
Bill Kearney is a workhorse who will get the job done for us on the county board. That’s the kind of supervisor we need to help Lake County rebuild and recover.
Please join me in supporting Bill Kearney for Lake County supervisor in District 5.

My mother was experiencing reasonable pain relief from oral medications, but toward the end she could not ingest the medications and her nurse said that it would be beneficial for her to have a “compounded morphine solution” to keep her pain under control. She was referring to a cream compound that only a pharmacy licensed for compounding could produce.
The nurse told me that there was no pharmacy in Lake County that could compound that cream. I informed her that I believed Bill Kearney was a compounding pharmacist and she should contact him.
It was late at night and the pharmacy was closed, but she called his after-hours number and informed him of the need. He left his house, drove to his pharmacy and compounded the medication that my mother needed. Then he personally delivered it to her caregiver who was attending her that night in her home.
My mother passed the next morning, Christmas Eve, peacefully and pain-free.
The extra effort that Bill took in this instance was not an experience unique to my family. He displayed that kind of professional compassion throughout his career as a pharmacist.
That is one of many reasons that I support Bill Kearney for District 5 supervisor. I hope you will, too.
