And 43rd Ward Ald. Smith offers no endorsement in the race for Cook County State's Attorney.
The following are excerpts from a much longer email; Ald. Smith's entire sample ballot can be viewed as a webpage.
Ald. Smith's explanations for her suggested "no" votes can be found at the link above.
Because these are images, the links in the images don't work. But the reference to the "report issued in 2018" tracks to this link; you'll have to scroll down a bit to the heading "Juvenile Crime Statistics" to see report in question.
FWIW readers are continuing to respond to my "pics or it didn't happen" request for palm cards, and I am grateful. If you have a card to send, scan or photo it and email it to me at jackleyhane@yahoo.com. And please feel free to forward any endorsement emails you may receive.

What did these judges do to her? Oh. I get it. She actually read the narratives prepared by the ISBA and drew the inference when these same judges received multiple dings from various bar associations. My confidence in the bar association rating process has diminished with each election cycle. People who are grossly incompetent are found "Highly Qualified" for various levels of the bench and vice versa. In this day and age, just better to not seek bar ratings, then run and win. Then get on the bench, do a solid job and get solid ratings later for retention. Otherwise, your opponents just play bar association politics to screw with you. Plenty of that this cycle. Likely only to get worse in the coming years.
With the high crime rate in Lincoln Park, there's no way Ald. Michele Smith (43) would endorse Kim Foxx. ⊙﹏⊙
I'm curious why Smith is doing Comitteeperson Lucy Moog's (43) job. ¯\_ಠ_ಠ_/¯
The time for sample ballots and palm cards was late September-early October, not now. ಠ ೧ ಠ
Politicians and newspapers remain behind the times and haven't caught on to the notion that so many voters vote EARLY and have been for the last 4 election cycles. By the time these things get out, more than 25% of the electorate has voted.
