CHICAGO - Cook County's highest level elected Republican is Board of Review Commissioner Dan Patlak, who is fighting for re-election against a Chicago Democrat Machine candidate in November 2012. Patlak's political interests have evolved over the years, but he credits the Leadership Institute with being key to his campaign success thus far.
Last week, the Leadership Institute featured Commissioner Patlak as their Leadership Institute Graduate of the Week and they are doing a 2 part profile of his political career thus far.
