Laura Bertucci Smith was appointed by the Illinois Supreme Court to the Figeuroa vacancy in the 6th Judicial Subcircuit, but she, too, seems to have been unable to hold that seat. Here are the City results as of 10:50 p.m.:
| DEM - Judge, 6th Subcircuit (Vacancy of Figueroa) |
| 265 out of 288 precincts (92.01 %) |
| Mary Katherine M. Moore | 9,549 | 27.04 % |
| Stuart M. Brody | 3,260 | 9.23 % |
| Laura Bertucci Smith | 8,432 | 23.88 % |
| Nancy Hallihan Horodecki | 3,345 | 9.47 % |
| Mauricio Araujo | 10,729 | 30.38 % |
Other appointed judges who seem to have lost their bids to hold their seats are Judge Thaddeus L. Wilson (Montelione vacancy countywide), Judge Thomas R. Mulroy (12th Subcircuit, Devlin vacancy), Judge Kenneth L. Fletcher (10th Subcircuit, Pucinski vacancy), Judge James Edward Snyder (10th Subcircuit, Kowalski vacancy), Judge Furmin D. Sessoms (5th Subcircuit, Bush vacancy), and Judge James A. Shapiro (8th Subcircuit, Sheehan vacancy).
Fortunately for the appointed judges who were unable to prevail in their primary contests on Tuesday, there is nothing to prevent the Illinois Supreme Court from reappointing them to the next available vacancy, or perhaps even simply to recall the judge to the bench for a limited period.
ReplyDeleteKen Fletcher is a prick.
