Committee to Retain Michael P. Toomin established

A Committee to Retain Michael P. Toomin was registered today with the Illinois State Board of Elections. William P. Murphy is the listed Chair of the Committee.

Establishing a campaign committee will give supporters of Judge Toomin the ability to raise and spend funds in an effort to keep him on the bench, something that most Circuit Court retention candidates do not usually have to worry about, but something that became an issue for Judge Toomin when the Cook County Democratic Party withheld support for his retention bid.

I'm voting "yes" for Toomin's retention, because I don't care for Preckwinkle, Foxx, Davis, Rush and Schakowsky telling me how to vote. ☹️

How ironic. This guy doesn’t give two hot damns about most of this retention class. But they voted to stick with him for “Judicial Independence.” Translation: most thought they didn’t need the party to win. Great. But if it doesn’t work, Anna, Hannah and the other mean girl (you know who you are toots) will he persona non grata and there will be no challenge to Evans in 2022.
