FOP releases endorsements in aldermanic races

The Fraternal Order of Police - Chicago Lodge No. 7 made an endorsement in the mayoral race yesterday that was a lead story on most TV newscasts.

But the FOP has also released a list of endorsements in several aldermanic contests. That's a link to the .pdf list, posted on the FOP site. "[K]eep in mind," says a statement on the FOP site, linking to the list, "that some candidates did not request the endorsement of the Lodge."

Among the aldermanic candidates endorsed by the FOP are Timothy M. Cullerton in the 38th Ward, Jim Mullen in the 41st Ward, and John Garrido in the 45th.
