Democratic sweep in contested judicial subcircuit elections

With over 90% of the votes already counted, 90 minutes after the polls closed, it appears that the Democratic nominees in the four contested subcircuit elections have prevailed.

The closest race is in the 18th Subcircuit, but John Hock is ahead of Lynn Terese Palac by over 4,000 votes with 94% of the votes counted (136 of 144 precincts reporting):

The margins are even larger in the three 12th Subcircuit races, where Alon Stein appears to have bested Maria McCarthy, Frank J. Andreou holds a better-than-9,000 vote margin over Pamela Curran Smith, and James "Jack" Costello is up by more than 12,000 votes over Matthew Taylor:

Only five precincts are unaccounted for in this report from the Cook County Clerk's website.

Both the 12th and 18th Subcircuits are located entirely outside the City of Chicago.
