Running for Sheriff is about listening, showing up, and building trust, but it also takes resources to reach voters across Kane County. If you believe in experienced, accountable leadership and a Sheriff’s Office that continues to move public safety forward, I respectfully ask for your support. Any contribution, no matter the amount, helps us keep this campaign grassroots, community-driven, and focused on the people we serve. Thank you for supporting the future of Kane County.

I’m Michele Clark, a former small business owner, a nonprofit leader and a mom of two daughters. I’m running for State Senate to make Illinois more affordable for working families – because I know the struggle of making payroll, paying high property taxes and raising kids in this economy. With a passion for service and a desire for practical solutions, I’ll work to lower costs, protect women’s rights and ensure every child, regardless of income or ability, has the support they need to thrive.

We’re hosting a trivia night at Alter Brewing + Kitchen in St. Charles.

The campaign will be providing food and beverage for all ticket holders. Come join the fun!
