The Peoria County State's Attorney's office concludes there is no information to show congressional candidate Aaron Schock committed a misdemeanor as a notary public.

One of Schock's opponents, Democratic candidate Colleen Callahan, brought up allegations that Schock had improperly dated a document in early 2000 for his parents. His family had not benefited from post–dating the document.
The State's Attorney's office was asked to investigate if Schock committed official misconduct.
Assistant State's Attorney Seth Uphoff reviewed the allegations and not only found no information to show official misconduct by a notary public, but he also said the statute of limitations to file such an infraction had passed.

Of course there is no evidence of wrong doing. Aaron Schock is a trustworthy, honest and compassionate hard-worker for Central Illinois citizens. We WILL BE BLESSED to have him as our Congressman.

How said of Colleen Callahan to even attempt to make this an issue in the first place.
