The Lincoln Series Welcomes a New Executive Committee

Sarah Riddell Elected President


The Lincoln Series welcomed the new year with a new Executive Committee. According to the organization's by-laws, the Board's Governors are up for election every three years.  Sarah Riddell rises from first Vice President to President as Eva Pusateri becomes President Emeritus. 

"For the past three years Eva worked with our Board of Governors to increase marketing efforts, add programming and offerings for our membership. On behalf of the Board, we are grateful for lending us her time, talent and creativity to make The Lincoln Series the premier organization in training and mentoring Republican women to run for office,"  said Sarah Riddell. "I look forward to continue building our organization as President."

Other Governors on the Board include: Abby Walsh,  first Vice President; Katie Justak, second Vice President; Vasavi Chakka; Secretary;  Laura Kotelman, Treasurer and Jillian Bernas.

As we work together as Republicans, as Illinoisans, to build a better, stronger, more ethical state, we all win when we include more women at the governing table - local, state or federal. With your donation and support, we can work toward that goal faster.  Thank you for your consideration!
