Three of four candidates attended, including Dr. Robert Donaldson of Hazel Crest and Forte, a Chicago State University student, while Deborah Sims did not appear. The discussion covered jobs, the I-80 corridor, tax caps, pretrial detention, and alternatives to warehousing offenders, with emphasis on development and education to reduce crime.
