Campaign website, May 24 fundraiser announced for Judge Clare Joyce Quish

Supporters of Judge Clare Joyce Quish's bid to retain the judicial seat to which she was appointed last June have established a campaign website for their candidate. That's a link to the site in the preceding sentence; a link will be added to a blog sidebar just as soon as I set it up.

Quish's campaign website stresses her background with Schuyler, Roche & Crisham, where she "was an integral part of the firm’s commercial and litigation practice." She served on the Illinois Supreme Court’s Committee on Character and Fitness for the First Judicial District and as an Adjunct Professor of Appellate Advocacy at Loyola University Chicago School of Law. According to her campaign website, Quish was named "an Illinois Rising Star by Illinois Super Lawyers in Appellate Practice for 2009, 2010, 2012 and 2013" and "recognized as an Emerging Lawyer by the Chicago Daily Law Bulletin in 2015 and 2016." Quish began her legal career as a law clerk to then-Appellate Court Justice Mary Jane Theis.

The Quish campaign has also announced a fundraiser for their candidate on Wednesday, May 24, from 5:30 to 7:00 p.m., at the Elephant & Castle, 185 N. Wabash Ave. Tom Crisham, John O'Malley and David Sullivan are the listed hosts for event.

Tickets are $50 apiece, but sponsorships are available ($100 - Supporter, $200 - Patron, $500 - Sponsor, $1,000 - Host, and $1,500 - Chair). For more information about the fundraiser, or to reserve tickets, email eric@blueprintcampaignconsulting.com or call Eric at (773) 562-9559.
