David received a strong recommendation from the Bloomington Pantagraph:
Miller also has additional insight as a small businessman with firsthand experience with waiting for payments from the state. He operates two Chicago-area dentist offices. In fact, he was among the volunteer dentists who visited McLean County for two days in June to provide free dental care through the Illinois Mission of Mercy.
We like Miller’s ideas for saving money by providing incentives for electronic payments, moving cemetery regulation from the comptroller’s office to the office of professional regulation and making more spending cuts. He also is right about the need for more information to be readily available online.
On balance, Miller has the edge and would bring new blood, a quiet competence and a commitment to bipartisan change. The Pantagraph Editorial Board endorses David Miller for comptroller.
