Linda Sackey: In her own words

Linda Sackey is a candidate for the countywide Cobbs vacancy. Her punch number is 134.
Being sworn in as a Cook County circuit judge in January 2025 was an extraordinary experience. I was surrounded by family and friends from various stages of my life as I took an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States, the Constitution of the State of Illinois, and to faithfully execute my duties to the best of my ability.

I often think about that oath, and my commitment to uphold it is stronger than ever. For me, serving as a judge has never been about prestige, salary, or title. What truly matters is the work: ensuring that every person who enters my courtroom is treated with dignity, that every case is evaluated on its merits, and that justice is delivered fairly and impartially.

Over the past year on the bench, I have demonstrated the legal expertise, temperament, and work ethic required to serve the people of Cook County with integrity. I am running to continue that service, and I ask for your vote so that I can keep doing this important work.

Linda Sackey, punch no. 134, Cobbs vacancy.
