JUDGE ROSADO RAN A PERFECT CAMPAIGN. SHE AND HER FAMILY WORKED LIKE THEIR LIVES DEPENDED ON IT SINCE GOT THE APPOINTMENT IN THE BEGINNING OF 2017. SHE EVEN BEAT AN OAK PARKER HEAD TO HEAD IN OAK PARK, WHICH IS GROUNDBREAKING. JUDGE ROSADO, ALONG WITH JUDGE NAVARRO IN THE 4TH, ARE TRAILBLAZING LATINOS FOR WINNING WHERE THEY WON.
