Lynne R. Gilbert of Congerville is the first person to announce her candidacy for the bid of Woodford County Circuit Clerk in the upcoming March 15, 2016 primary election.
Gilbert, a life-long resident of Woodford County, comes from strong Republican ties. Her past experience as Office Manager at the Woodford County State's Attorney's office working closely with the Circuit Clerk's office, judges, attorneys and law enforcement agencies, as well as her experience with CUSD #140 managing various accounts, gives her exposure to all aspects of the position.
Gilbert's plan is to assess the office and work with the County Board to minimize cost of operations to the taxpayers. She said what her experience will show is the knowledge, dedication and sincerity that she brings with her.
