The CFL has endorsed many of the same candidates slated by the Cook County Democratic Party -- but it has strayed from the slate in a number of races. In Cook County judicial races, the CFL has endorsed:
First District Appellate Court
Susan Kennedy Sullivan -- Gordon Vacancy
David Ellis -- Murphy Vacancy
John B. Simon -- Steele Vacancy
Circuit Court -- Countywide Vacancies
Bridget Anne Mitchell -- Arnold Vacancy
Maritza Martinez -- Burke Vacancy
Kristal Rivers -- Connors Vacancy
Daniel J. Kubasiak -- Egan Vacancy
Caroline Kate Moreland -- Howse Vacancy
Thomas J. Carroll -- Lowrance Vacancy
Cynthia Y. Cobbs -- McDonald Vacancy
William B. Raines -- Neville Vacancy
Diana Rosario -- Reyes Vacancy
Andrea Michele Buford -- Veal Vacancy
Cook County Subcircuit Vacancies
Terrence J. McGuire -- 3rd Subcircuit Donnelly Vacancy
Maureen Masterson Pulia -- 4th Subcircuit Billik Jr. Vacancy
Martin D. Reggi -- 4th Subcircuit Mulhern Vacancy
Robert D. Kuzas -- 7th Subcircuit Hardy‐Campbell Vacancy
Judy Rice -- 7th Subcircuit Taylor Vacancy
Jerry A. Esrig -- 9th Subcircuit Goldberg Vacancy
Thomas M. Cushing -- 9th Subcircuit Preston Vacancy
Anthony C. Kyriakopoulos -- 10th Subcircuit A Vacancy
Pamela McLean Meyerson -- 11th Subcircuit A Vacancy
James Edward Hanlon Jr. -- 12th Subcircuit Jordan Vacancy
Caroline M. Kennedy‐Elkins -- 13th Subcircuit Iosco Vacancy
Diana Embil -- 15th Subcircuit Doody Jr. Vacancy
Chris Lawler -- 15th Subcircuit Sterba Vacancy
Why did the CFL endorse Maureen Masterson Pulia for 4th Subcircuit judge?? She apparently has been a Republican for her entire political career up to this election, and ran as a Republican in 2008 and 2010; she is rated "Not Qualified" by the Illinois State Bar Association and the Chicago Council of Lawyers; and, according to other endorsers, has no litigation experience which disqualify her in their opinion.I really want to cast an informed vote here. Can you explain your reasoning here? There are 2 other candidates who get much better ratings, especially John Mahoney. Why was Masterson Pulia endorsed over these others? Thank you!
