*************************************************
State Rep. Jim Durkin (R-Countryside): …We can have immediate disclosure and also have caps on the money which is being raised in these elections. Do you think a State Rep. seat is worth a half million dollars or a million dollars. That is what is being spent in Illinois on some of these very competitive seats. It is outrageous that this type of money has to be raised—
Jeff Berkowitz: Is it? How much do we spend to sell Coca-Cola? How much do we spend to sell cereal? …It’s not bad. If people want to inform the public about a State Rep. seat or a State Senate seat and they want to tell people the issues and they want to put money into that—why is that wrong?
State Rep. Jim Durkin (R-Countryside): I would suggest you are in the minority, Jeff, when you say that.
Jeff Berkowitz: You don’t think people should want to know—Jim Durkin, should we know your positions on issues—and if spending money gets the information about issues out, that puts me in the minority? I think that is high school civics.
State Rep. Jim Durkin (R-Countryside): … What I would suggest is that most people—I believe most people believe that there is too much money in the system, too much money is being spent, there should be some type of limitation from the entities—corporations, lobbyists and also individual contributions.
Jeff Berkowitz: Do we have it around here, somewhere? Never go far without your Constitution….Jim, this would be the.U. S. Constitution.
State Rep. Jim Durkin (R-Countryside): I am very familiar with that. I am very familiar with the First Amendment.
Jeff Berkowitz: Do you know what the First Amendment says?
