Judges Debra B. Walker and Raymond W. Mitchell seem comfortably ahead in surprisingly complete returns reported by City and County election officials thus far.
Mitchell has 74,509 votes with 94% of precincts reported, about 12,000 votes ahead of Judge John Ehrlich, the Democratic Party's slated candidate. With some 80.6% of City precincts reporting, Mitchell is also about 25,000 votes ahead there, too.
Walker is over 23,000 votes ahead of the Democratic Party's slated candidate, Judge Dominique C. Ross, in City returns. In the suburbs, she's about 10,000 votes ahead of Ross.
Party candidates have fared better in countywide races.
Judge Tracie Porter is well ahead in the race for the Callahan, Jr. vacancy, Associate Judge Diana López seems well ahead in the race for the Gordon Cannon vacancy, and Thomas E. Nowinski is comfortably leading in the race for the Hyman vacancy. Judge Rena Marie Van Tine is well ahead in the race for the Leeming vacancy.
But Howard Brookins may be in trouble and Yolanda Harris Sayre definitely is.
More to come....
