Objections to Judge Geanopoulos's petitions overruled, website found

The objections to the petitions filed on behalf of Judge Nicholas Geanopoulos were recently overruled by the Cook County Electoral Board. Pending an appeal, therefore, Geanopolous will appear on the March 20 primary ballot in the race for the Durkin Roy vacancy 8th Subcircuit.

In related news, Judge Geanopolous's campaign website is now online. That's a link to the site in the preceding sentence; a link has also been added to the blog sidebar.

Judge Geanopoulos was appointed to a countywide judicial vacancy in 2008. He did not run for election in 2010 but was recalled to judicial service by the Illinois Supreme Court after the expiration of his initial appointment.
