Venita Hervey’s victory in the 5th ward means she’s the alderman

The Democratic Party rules Rockford’s 5th ward, meaning that Venita Hervey, veteran school activist, will be the alderman replacing Vic Bell, who’s been alderman since 1971!
Vic backed Venita,and I have no doubt she’ll be a vigorous champion of southwest Rockford. She beat Evelyn Barmore, 73 percent to 23 percent.
Hervey helped attorney Bob Howard of Evanston represent People Who Care during that epic school deseg/discrimination lawsuit.
