Democratic secretary of state candidates Anna Valencia and Alexi Giannoulias traded accusations of ethical lapses during a Union League forum.
Democratic candidates for Illinois secretary of state, from left, Alexi Giannoulias, David Moore and Anna Valencia appear at a candidates forum at the Union League Club of Chicago in the Loop on May 26, 2022.
Those issues have dominated the race and once again overshadowed explanations about how the candidates plan to run the office if they are chosen to replace Secretary of State Jesse White, who is retiring. She criticized his tenure as state treasurer from 2007 to 2011, when a college savings program overseen by his office lost millions of dollars and “hurt working families like the one I grew up in.”
The secretary of state’s office is tasked with regulating lobbyists for state government like Kazmi, who also is registered as a lobbyist for Chicago government. If elected, Valencia has said her husband would no longer be allowed to lobby the secretary of state’s office.“She has used her office as a culture of corruption to enrich her husband and his lobbying career,” Giannoulias said.
