Keith L. Spence campaign website goes online

Supporters of Keith L. Spence, a candidate for the countywide Hartigan vacancy, have set up a campaign website on his behalf. That's a link to the site in the preceding sentence; a link has also been added to the blog Sidebar.

Licensed as an attorney since 1999, according to ARDC, Spence maintains a law office in Matteson, practicing primarily in the areas of criminal defense, domestic relations, and real estate. A former trial attorney with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, according to his campaign bio, Spence also sits as an administrative law judge for the Village of Matteson. He previously served as an ALJ for the Village of Dolton.

A native South Sider, Spence is a graduate of Percy L. Julian High School and Southern Illinois University. Before attending law school (he graduated from John Marshall in 1999), Spence worked for over a decade as an executive producer with ABC/WLS-AM. Spence lives in Matteson with his wife and two sons.
