Personal PAC offers many endorsements in contested Cook County judicial races

Not too many years ago, in a post about Personal PAC's judicial endorsements, I referred to the organization as a pro-abortion rights lobbying group, or words to that effect. I received a few complaints: It was 'wrong' of me to use the word "abortion." I was supposed to say "pro-choice."

Now even that figleaf has been removed, as the above snippet from the current Personal PAC website shows.

Of course, every time I reported on Personal PAC endorsements, I'd get the stink eye from someone on the other side -- at church, perhaps -- and maybe a pointed question, like why don't you report about the Pro-Life endorsements? I would cheerfully report any such endorsements, were I to find them. As far as I know, no such endorsements exist.

Herewith, then, taken from the complete list of endorsements on the Personal PAC website, are that group's endorsements in contested judicial races:
Countywide Vacancies
Cobbs Vacancy - Both candidates
Coughlin Vacancy - Both candidates
Subcircuit Vacancies
1st Subcircuit (Walker) - All three candidates

8th Subcircuit (Gamrath) - All three candidates
8th Subcircuit (Mikva) - All three candidates

11th Subcircuit (Meyerson) - Jarrett Knox

17th Subcircuit (Carroll) - Bianca B. Brown

19th Subcircuit (Kane) - Monica Sommerville

20th Subcircuit (Miller) - Both candidates
Feel free to debate amongst yourselves what the value of an 'endorsement' is when your opponent receives the same endorsement.
