Dr. Eric Wallace is running for the open 40th Illinois State Senate seat due to the retirement of progressive anti-life, anti-family Toi Hutchinson, who stepped down to become Illinois’ new pot czar. Wallace is a man with unmovable integrity and a steadfast determination to rebuild the moral fiber of our state and culture – qualities we need more of in Springfield. This district includes areas of Chicago Heights, Olympia Fields, Park Forest, Manhattan and even Peotone, Bourbonnais, Kankakee and Herscher.

Background:

In 2008, he began publishing Freedom’s Journal Magazine, an online political magazine, aimed at encouraging African-Americans to cling to their natural conservative principles. He has authored two books: Integrity of Faith, an autobiography, and Jesus on Trial: The unique presentation of Jesus in the Gospel of John.

Over the last few years, he has served on the African American Advisory Board for the RNC, as the Chairman of the African American Republican Council of Illinois, as a member of the Outreach Advisory Board for the Illinois GOP, and as Co-Chairman of the Cook County Republican Party. He has also served as a commissioner on the Illinois Transatlantic Slave Trade Commission and on the Village of Matteson’s Planning & Zoning Commission. Eric was previously a candidate for U.S. Representative in the 2nd Congressional District election in 2014.

Eric holds the distinction of being the first African American to earn a Ph.D. in Biblical Studies from Union-PSCE. He has also served as a police officer and in the Army National Guard. He is married and has two adult sons.

ACTION:  We need your help this week circulating his petition to help him get the signatures he needs to be on the March 2020 primary ballot.  Can you get one or two sheets filled out and returned to his campaign mailbox before Thanksgiving – Wednesday, November 27th? That’s easy to do! We are simply asking that you get 10 or 20 signatures to help a pro-life and pro-family Christian conservative get on the ballot.
