A Hillary Comback or Barack Stays Strong?
Last night Hillary looked rejuvenated in her winning New Hampshire speech, but Barack remained strong and on message. The 43rd Ward, at least in the amount of money donated, is backing Barack. Where do the voters stand, please comment...

Egan's Endorsements
Tim Egan, a candidate for Chicago’s 43rd Ward Democratic Committeeman, has been endorsed for the office by Illinois Secretary of State Jesse White, former 43rd Ward Alderman Edwin Eisendrath and the Chicago Fire Fighters Union Local 2.
“Tim Egan is a worker,” Secretary White said, “who will help build an inclusive and impactful Democratic organization.”
“Tim ran an honorable and positive campaign for 43rd Ward Alderman in 2007,” Edwin Eisendrath said. “He showed an ability to build relationships and displayed a desire to participate in good politics which leads to good government.”
The Committeeman’s role can best be described as a “political” position not a governmental job. The responsibility of the Committeeman is to reach out to the voters of the ward and provide information on all things political in terms of candidates and races.
Committeeman is an unpaid position and is one of 80 in Cook County. Egan has already developed the first ever website dedicated to Democratic politics in the 43rd Ward; www.43rdWardDems.com.
“Tim is a communicator,” Eisendrath continued. “His tireless community involvement and dedication to helping others makes him the best choice to rebuild the 43rd Ward’s Democratic Organization.”
Secretary White is on record as receiving the widest margin of victory in any state-wide election in Illinois history. Mr. Eisendrath was 43rd Ward Alderman from 1987 to 1993 and ran for Governor of Illinois in 2006.
Egan serves as Vice President of the Norwegian American Hospital Foundation which was recently awarded a grant in the amount of $675,000 to implement a Mobile Pediatric Care-A-Van serving Chicago’s Humboldt Park neighborhood. Egan is also the Chairman and Founder of the Chicago Irish Brotherhood, a benevolent organization that has donated 10’s of thousands of dollars to charitable endeavors such as the Make-A-Wish Foundation, the Illinois Fire Safety Alliance Camp I Am Me, Special Olympics and many more.
Egan is married to Marlena Miglin-Egan and they have two sons; Wedge Donovan Egan, 4, and Tadgh Liam Egan, 3.
