This was the ultimate train wreck by the "Executive Committee of PJs" otherwise, Tim's rubber stamp/ Evan's PJs broke precedent by not staging the Associate's "short list" immediately following the election primary. Although Tim's PJs had saved numerous appointed judges by the Supreme Court that could not get elected in the primary, Evans and his PJs correctly decided this year to keep the 2 selection processes separate. There should be no relation to the Associate selection and the political Supreme Ct. appointments. (They are not vetted by the full judiciary, just named by a Sup Ct jurist. However by delaying the process until April, The PJs must concede that they chilled a Revolution of judges voting for "write in " candidates that would have dominated the PJs short list. Half the judiciary in the State are in Lombard for ClE and the write ins would have kicked ass contrary to the PJs selections of diverse yet weak candidates. Evans and the PJs were exposed. This press release and the explanation is a joke.
