JR Patton: A Fighter for Calumet City's Future – Your Vote Matters!

CALUMET CITY, Ill. - Feb. 9, 2025 - PRLog -- Calumet City stands at a crossroads, and the upcoming mayoral election on February 25 is a defining moment for the future of our community. With corruption and mismanagement threatening the stability of our city, residents have a choice: continue down the same path of scandal and dysfunction or elect a leader with a proven track record of fighting for the people. That leader is JR Patton.

For years, JR Patton has been a dedicated public servant, standing up for the people of Calumet City as an alderman. Unlike many others, he refused to turn a blind eye to the corruption that has plagued our local government. Time and again, he placed himself in the line of fire to protect the residents from unethical practices under Mayor Thaddeus Jones' administration. From exposing nepotism and the unjust termination of city employees to defending the integrity of our democratic process, Patton has proven that he is not afraid to take a stand for what is right.

Despite being warned that challenging the current administration would invite personal attacks and defamation, Patton has refused to be silenced. His commitment to the residents of Calumet City outweighs any political ambition. He is running for mayor not out of personal gain, but out of necessity—because our city deserves honest, transparent, and effective leadership.

As a recent cancer survivor, Patton knows firsthand the value of resilience and determination. His battle with illness has only strengthened his resolve to fight for a better Calumet City. He understands that our city cannot afford to continue under leadership that prioritizes self-interest over community well-being. With the current mayor under yet another state investigation, it is clearer than ever that change is needed.

The Time for Change Is Now

On February 25, the power is in your hands. Your vote is not just a ballot—it is a statement. A statement that corruption will no longer be tolerated. A statement that our city deserves leadership that prioritizes people over politics. A statement that Calumet City's future matters.

JR Patton has always fought for us. Now, it's time we fight for him.

Make your voice heard. Vote JR Patton for Mayor on February 25!
