Dan Balanoff, the grandson of former Cook County Circuit Court Judge Miriam Balanoff, has announced plans to seek an 8th Subcircuit judicial seat.
That's a link to Balanoff's campaign website in the preceding sentence; a link has also been added to the blog Sidebar.
Balanoff has already had a write-up on Politico, in a piece that mentions that Dan Balanoff's father is Cook County Circuit Court Judge Robert Balanoff and "his uncles are progressive political consultant Clem Balanoff and SEIU President Tom Balanoff."
Licensed as an attorney since 2007, according to ARDC, Balanoff is the principal of Balanoff & Associates, with an office on South Ewing Street on the Southeast Side. His campaign bio stresses that he has lived in Lincoln Park for the past decade, and has served on the Lincoln Park High School LSC.

Wow. He looks just like his father. More hair and a tie.
ANON 8/12 - THERE'S A YOUNG MAN RUNNING FOR ILLINOIS SUPREME COURT WITH ONLY 4 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE AS AN ATTORNEY, SO 12 YEARS IS AN ETERNITY!
When I thought about running for judge a few months before the 12th anniversary of my swearing in, the CBA called me and told me I'd be found not qualified. I wonder if that's still how they calculate 12 years of experience.
We are running a Jewish woman against him. He can then move into some rental in the 1st subcircuit until his daddy suddenly retires at the last possible moment and he tries to slither in.
