Former Ald. Eli Judge, District 8, announced his support for Scott Resnick in a press release Monday for the current District 8 alder race.
Judge said he and Resnick often consulted on policy during Judge's term as alder and both opposed the Alcohol License Density Ordinance.
""He was a wonderful resource to me as alder when we were trying to fight the Alcohol Licensing Density Plan and improve it,"" Judge said. ""His insight was not only useful to me, but it was also helpful to other students who were also concerned what affect the law would have on the city and campus.""
Resnick said he is proud to have Judge's endorsement, and hopes it will add momentum to his campaign.
""Eli Judge's success passing pro-student policies and in raising the profile of the District 8 seat helped make him my local political idol,"" Resnick said in the release. ""His support means the world to me.""
