PUB DEF EXCLUSIVE
In March 2005, Jeffrey Hardin lost his bid to unseat Alderman Freeman Bosley, Sr. by just 19 votes. That narrow lost was heartbreaking to many residents of the 3rd Ward who said their veteran representative, who is 4th in aldermanic seniority, has become out of touch and has presided over a three-decade decline in the quality of life for most residents of his northside ward.
Some of those residents -- many sparked by that omnipresent source of controversy; eminent domain -- have started a petition to recall Bosley. Tonight, Hardin told PUB DEF that if that effort (which he says he is not involved in) is successful, he will run again.

Go, Jeff, go! Hopefully Hyde Park will still be standing when Hardin finally wins the seat.

I like Jeff, he talks right and seems to be ready for real action. Hope he runs again and wins.

Jeffrey Hardin will give the whole ward to his family and be the worst alderman ever. Do some research on who his family is? We don't want Jeffrey in the 3rd, we want an unknown candidate that is ready to file and they will win in the end. That is if the recall is successful.
