Issue With Logging in to LPIllinois.org (CiviCRM)
by Kevin Mahoney 12 Dec '23

12 Dec '23

Kelly, I hope you can help me or steer me to whoever can solve this CiviCRM problem. I've been unable to log in to the LP Illinois CiviCRM for a couple of weeks now. Here's what is happening: I go to the lpillinois.org site and enter my login and password. I then get my 2FA authentication number in my personal email. Then, no matter if I enter the authentication number in my login page, or click on the "Continue" link in the 2FA email, that is where everything stops. If I hit "continue", it stops at https://lpillinois.org/wp-admin/ If I enter the authorization number on the original login, it stops at https://lpillinois.org/wp-login.php?action=itsec-2fa&itsec-hb-token=act A few times, a CAPTCHA page has come up, I was able to proceed to the login, but it still hangs up as above. I've tried different browsers with the same result (I get a 500 error with Edge, or it takes me to the public site, not CRM). Also, once I've tried to log in, unless I clear all my history and cache, if I try again, it goes directly to the logout (https://lpillinois.org/wp-login.php?itsec-hb-token=act&loggedout=true&wp_la…) I don't know, maybe my bookmark is corrupted or something. Can you send me the link to our CRM page, maybe that would help. Thanks. -- Kevin Mahoney Membership Director Libertarian Party of Illinois

Executive Director Report - August 2022

20 Jun '23

Fellow Libertarians - If you are not a recurring monthly donor to the LP Illinois, please visit www.lpillinois.org/donate to set. If you cannot donate monthly, please consider a one-time donation. Also please consider Lifetime Memberships. Thanks to all our donors, both new and recurring. We just paid for a petition drive and we need to rebuild the treasury. Become a donor today! If you are not a Precinct Committeeperson, please consider becoming one. If you are in an established county, start planning the next PC elections. Meanwhile, the information on https://lpillinois.org/precinct-committeemen/ should be updated. The GOP has filled vacancies in Cook County. There will be some three-way races, but we were able to work together and successfully challenge some of the vacancies, and now there will be key two-way races in Cook County. The CCLCC was sent notice by the Cook County Clerk's Office of the "Established Political Party Lottery" to be held tomorrow. I wrote an appeal and sent it to the Ex Com. Seeing no further suggestions, I am going to schedule that one for tomorrow morning. In the month of July, we brought in a total of $582.51. So far in August, we've brought in $2274.21. Again, we just paid for a petition drive and need to replenish our coffers. Please reach into your couch cushions, put aside a few coffees, and or whatever you can spare, large or small, to help rebuild. My all-time haul as ED is $11,380.62 9 of the top 20 months for contribution aggregate have been since April 2021. I am seeking another term as Chair of the Cook County Libertarian Central Committee. I seek to institute a plan for 2024 Ward Committeeperson races, update our bylaws to better comply with IL law, and to fill vacancies in Cook County townships. Please vote for me if you plan to attend the CCLCC convention next Wednesday in Oak Park. Visit here for more details regarding the CCLCC convention: https://lpchicago.org/event/2022-cook-county-libertarian-central-committee-… I followed up with again JB Pritzker's staffer regarding a meeting with Libertarian constituents. Still no reply. I encourage folks to secure their Libertarian memorabilia in our archive at UIC to protect them from damage. Reach out to me about donations. I plan on boxing up some things and making a donation soon. Thank you for letting me serve you as Executive Director. Best, Justin Tucker Executive Director, Libertarian Party of Illinois

Fwd: Political Division
by Blake Hanson 23 Nov '22

23 Nov '22

Forward of Jake Leonard's email. --- Regards, ~Blake Hanson ~Director, Field Operations Division ~Libertarian Party of Illinois ~Cell: (779) 777-5139 ~Business Email: fieldopsdirector(a)lpillinois.org ~Personal Email: blake.a.hanson1(a)gmail.com -------- Original Message -------- SUBJECT: Political Division DATE: 2022-11-10 17:32 FROM: <chairman(a)tricountylibertarians.org> TO: <chair(a)lpillinois.org>, <vicechair(a)lpillinois.org>, <secretary(a)lpillinois.org>, <treasurer(a)lpillinois.org> CC: <executivedirector(a)lpillinois.org>, <communications(a)lpillinois.org>, <fieldopsdirector(a)lpillinois.org>, <it(a)lpillinois.org>, <scc1(a)lpillinois.org>, <scc3(a)lpillinois.org>, <scc5(a)lpillinois.org>, <scc6(a)lpillinois.org>, <scc7(a)lpillinois.org>, <scc9(a)lpillinois.org>, <scc10(a)lpillinois.org>, <scc11(a)lpillinois.org>, <scc15(a)lpillinois.org>, <scc16(a)lpillinois.org>, <scc17(a)lpillinois.org> All, Any email that I send to this party is never easy. My resignation as Political Director in May in wake of the aftermath of the national convention in Reno was one of the hardest decision I've ever had to make in my nine years in the party, six of which were in active involvement in the Political Division under the divisional administration leadership of Scott Schluter and Kyle Symons. Early Wednesday morning, almost 2 a.m. if I recall correctly, Executive Director Justin Tucker and SCC District 9 representative Adam Balling, posed a question as to whether I would ever return to lead the Political Division, which the director role has been vacant since May. I am aware that I upset some of my long-time allies within this party. I also angered people who were either adversaries (mainly because of some stupid, irrelevant caucus affiliation) or allies who became enemies because of that resignation email. I felt a lot of anger and frustration over Reno that I (wrongly) assumed the worst for Illinois, hence what I call my rash decision to resign from all roles with the party, not only as Political Director, but from the national ballot access committee. I dissolved my chapter and didn't even reconstitute as ChrisMont (meaning Christian and Montgomery counties) Libertarian Central Committee until a week or so before the election. Amidst all that, I may have been dealing with several bouts of burnout, given that most of my time in charge of the Political Division was often. It would have been nice to have a deputy director to cover some slack in alternating months. I know I'm capable of continuing the work I did and fulfill some objectives that I wasn't quite able to enact. One of the initiatives I wanted to do was allocate candidate recruitment directors based on state region. Chicago/Cook County could very easily be its own recruitment region (and easily subdivided as necessary), given that in 2024, they will also be able to circulate petitions for all Congressional and General Assembly districts exclusively within its borders. But I know that this is not what you want to know. You want to know if I'm capable of keeping my temperament in check. I know it won't be easy, but I'm sure as hell going to try. At this point, I'm just ready to bury the hatchets and let bygones be bygones. Especially given the circumstances of Tuesday night, being that the Libertarian Party is officially established in my home county in Montgomery County as a result of Attorney General candidate Dan Robin getting 5.29%. That brings the number of established counties to eight, the third to be established as a result of a statewide candidate after McLean County (Gary Johnson, POTUS, 2016) and Kankakee County (Mike Leheney, 2018, State Treasurer). Should this board opt to reappoint me to the role of Political Director, I'll be too busy planning for 2024 to even be bothered by factional infighting. * Cook County has a plethora of races, which will include county-exclusive Congressional and General Assembly races. Their ballot access is good until 2026, and I only expect that to extend even longer. There was a great slate of candidates that we fought tooth and nail for in Federal court this cycle. Their rockstar candidate this cycle was most definitely Niko Tsatsoulis, who earned 200,000 votes in a head-to-head race against a Democratic incumbent for the office of county assessor. * Similarly, McLean County has also extended their status to 2026 earning nearly 24% combined between results from McLean County and the Bloomington Election Commission. * We have work to go to retain our major party status in DeWitt, Kankakee, McHenry, Peoria, and Tazewell counties. Four counties didn't run any countywide candidates this cycle, while we didn't quite get 5% in McHenry. It will be of utmost importance to slate candidates in 2024 to retain such status. * Then, of course, we have Montgomery County to plan for. Every single election has gone uncontested by Republicans (and Democrat for county treasurer for as long as I've lived here. But if this board opts not to, I'll understand and respect your wishes. That will just give me a clear message to just focus on Montgomery County for the 2024 and 2026 general elections, and the partisan township elections in 2025. Thank you for your time.

A note on our donations. There is a 2-3 day lag between when donations are entered on Stripe and when they arrive in our bank account. Typically there is not a significant change between cash on hand and accounts receivable at the end of the month but for October, there was. I also want to thank everyone for their hard work and effort this past election cycle. -- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. www.avast.com
