List of 2026 Cook County Circuit Court Candidates and website links

As promised, I've put up a 2026 Candidate List in the Sidebar on the web version of this site. Given that many FWIW readers access this site via mobile devices (what we old-timers quaintly refer to as 'phones'), some of you will not be particularly familiar with the Sidebar. So be it. For those of you in that category, I have also put a Candidate List below, with links to candidate websites I have so far found.

You will note that the list that follows is not quite complete; there are some 'dead links.' This may be because the candidate has not yet put up a website; it is also possible that, despite my best efforts, I missed some. If I have missed a site, or when the website of the candidate of your choice goes live, drop me an email at jackleyhane@yahoo.com and I will endeavor to promptly update the Sidebar list. Meanwhile, feel free to browse among the sites found so far:
