Updated February 28 to reflect additional endorsement made by Ald. Vasquez.

Perhaps he should change his slogan to "Our Ward. My Hustle." The only reason Reyes didn't get the endorsement is he refused to pay the $5k cash that Vazquez wanted the candidates for Supreme Court to pay. Ouch, Nate. How did Gator let you get hustled like that?
Generally a decent job for a newcomer. Howse is a great choice. Same with Trowbridge and Quinn. De la Cruz and Baumann are head scratchers though. They have far superior opponents. I'm also not a fan of electing associate judges when highly qualified candidates are running against them. I would have picked Mulay over Smith.
Marjorie, the nail girl at Turning Heads Salon in Avondale has issued her slate. She urges everyone to vote for her second-cousin's wife, Monica. Monica used to work at Live or Dye Beauty Shop in the 14th Ward, but lost her lease when a Burger King moved-in next door. Marjorie says Monica is "real good at texting with one hand and prolly don't need spellcheck."
Apparently you've never appeared before Justice Reyes. Very nice man but doesn't have a Supreme Court intellect. We already have one of those in Burke. Let's not add another.
The best comment all season. Kudos.
lol whatever "Supreme Court intellect" means. All the candidates are smart enough to be on the court.
