This is an informative and interesting episode for anyone who is thinking about running for office especially at the local levels. Though endorsed by the DuPage County Green Party, Gokhan Cukurova ran in a nonpartisan race for Medinah Park District Park Commissioner this past April. In an uphill battle against incumbents, he only lost by 46 votes meaning his chance at winning next time if he runs, is quite likely. In this episode we discuss what drove him to run for this office and how he campaigned. You can learn more about Gokhan, his community involvement, and his campaign at medinahforward.com.
