“Charlie Mitchell immediately brings to the table a wealth of knowledge and experience that any new county clerk would take years to develop and apply. He understands the election process inside-out and front-to-back. He has tremendous integrity, and he’ll adopt commonsense practices and standards that guarantee the security of our elections while ensuring that every citizen who is entitled to vote may cast their ballot.”
– Charles Pelkie
Former Chief of Staff, Will County Clerk
Former Interim Will County Clerk
“I worked closely with Charlie Mitchell as I served as the Madison County Clerk in Indiana. At that time we were switching to touch screen voting. Charlie provided detailed explanations and calmness to all of my concerns. I knew Charlie Mitchell to be trustworthy, honest, compassionate and helpful to ALL the employees of the Clerk’s Office, and Poll Workers that he helped train for elections. Always a professional, I did not know his politics, even though I was a Democrat. After I left office he served and was trusted by Republican Clerks as well. Charlie Mitchell will make a great LaSalle County Clerk. He already has the knowledge of the office and will serve for ALL of the people of LaSalle County.”
– Ludy Watkins
Former Madison County Clerk of Indiana

Unwavering in his integrity and committed to absolute transparency, I witnessed firsthand that he has the experience and leadership necessary for this position. He knows exactly what it takes to keep local democracy strong, and secure. His integrity is unmatched, and his experience is proven. Charlie will make an exceptional LaSalle County Clerk, and he has my full support!”
