Lorraine Murphy website launched, January 19 fundraiser set

Supporters of Lorraine Murphy's bid for the O'Neill Burke vacancy in the 10th Subcircuit have launched a campaign website boosting her candidacy. 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 in Illinois since 2003, according to ARDC, Murphy's campaign bio notes that she has logged 85 jury trials during the course of her service as an Assistant State's Attorney. Before attending law school, Murphy worked as a broadcast journalist for CNN and "different NBC affiliates across the country."

Murphy now lives in Suaganash with her husband, Jim, and their two small children. They are parishioners at Queen of All Saints Basilica. According to her campaign bio, Murphy also volunteers her time as a board member for the Reach Out Community Center, "which helps provide underprivileged children with after school programs and other opportunities."

Murphy's supporters have planned a fundraiser for their candidate on Friday, January 19, starting at 6:00 p.m., at the Iron Horse Ale House, 6158 N. Northwest Highway, Chicago. Tickets for the event are $50 each, and the cost of admission includes pizza and two drink tickets. For more information about the event, or to reserve tickets, email electlorrainemurphy@gmail.com.
