DescriptionFormer state Treasurer Judy Baar Topinka is looking to return to state government.

The Riverside Republican is eyeing a run for state comptroller, a position now held by Democrat Dan Hynes.

"I am very frustrated watching what is going on in Springfield," Topinka said Thursday. "It would give me a chance to fight back."

Topinka, 65, left state government in January 2007 after losing a bid for governor to former Gov. Rod Blagojevich. Topinka had served as treasurer for three terms and was a state senator prior to that.
