According to Bill 'Dock' Walls, Chicago Board of Election's Chairman Langdon Neal illegally precluded Mr. Walls' name from being placed on the 2003 ballot for Chicago City Clerk...hence the Walls Amendment. Last month, Mr. Neal stated the Cook County Circuit Court judges who are Division heads are to decide the replacement for long-time Daley supporter Theresa Petrone, who died recently.
In Law, as well as in Science, there is a concept called proximate cause. I have the impression that Langdon Neal benefits through Neal & Leroy LLC or perhaps some other corporate name ala Earl L. Neal & Associates
