Supporters of Associate Judge Mary Catherine Marubio's bid for the O'Brien vacancy in the 10th Subcircuit have launched a campaign website and scheduled a fundraiser for their candidate on Wednesday, February 19, from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. at the Plymouth Restaurant and Rooftop Bar. That's a link to the campaign website in the preceding sentence; a link has also been added to the blog Sidebar.
Tickets for next week's event, which is billed as an LGBTQ and Ally Fundraiser, are $75 apiece. Sponsorships are available (Supporter - $100, Benefactor - $150, Patron - $500, Sponsor - $1,000, Justice for All Champion - $2500). "Young Professionals" will be admitted for $50 each. For more information, including what the organizers consider to be a "young professional," email judgemarubio@gmail.com. Tickets are also available at this page on the candidate's campaign website.
The Host Committee for this event includes 44th Ward Ald. Tom Tunney, State Sen. Sara Feigenholtz (6th Dist.), State Rep. Kelly Cassidy (14th Dist.), Deputy Ald. Bennett Lawson, Brent Adams, Sam Adam Jr., Megan Carney, Dion Contreras, Jay Paul Deratany, Jon Erickson, Jeffrey Knipmeyer, Franco La Marca, Owen Daniel McCarter, Gail Morse, Michael Oppenheimer, Coco Soodek, Bonn Wade, and Jay Rowell.
Marubio became an Associate Judge in 2016. She currently serves as President of the Alliance of Illinois Judges. Before joining the bench, Marubio worked as an Administrative Law Judge for Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation and, after May 2014, as the agency's Ethics Officer. She has been licensed as an attorney in Illinois since 1997. Before joining IDFPR, Marubio had her own law practice, serving, among other things, as General Counsel for the Columbian Consulate in 12 Midwestern states.
Marubio is one of five candidates for the O'Brien vacancy. The other candidates are John Hourihane, Audrey Victoria Cosgrove, Liam Kelly, and Associate Judge Daniel Alexander Trevino.

Charlie Meyerson's Chicago Public Square had this yesterday, but it's not
the first time I've been a day late... or, for that matter, a dollar short.
Hard...
