DIXON – Former Lee County State’s Attorney Henry Dixon apparently had his secretary do campaign work at the office, even though state law bars using government resources for campaigns.

Through a public information request, Sauk Valley Media obtained documents related to Dixon’s re-election from the computer of his secretary, Sandie Cargill.

In one letter, Dixon wrote to ask an attorney why he contributed to the campaign of Dixon’s Republican opponent, Anna Sacco-Miller – a letter that one watchdog group suggested might be intimidating.
