Senior reporter Dan Hinkel has a breakdown of early election results from the judicial retention races in Cook County. (Spoiler alert: At least one judge could lose.) https://t.co/iukBgVhIKG

[Kelly Garcia @_KellyGarcia__]

NEW: Cook County judges E. Kenneth Wright Jr and Shannon O’Malley referred to disciplinary board following our reporting.

Both are facing a close retention election with O’Malley narrowly losing as of this afternoon and still many ballots to count.

Reminder that the @injusticewatch voter guide has everything:
-a judge who handcuffed a lawyer to a chair
-Ed Burke’s son-in-law
-the granddaughter of the late local mob boss Jackie “The Lackey” Cerone.
-fake Irish names
-real Irish names

At 3pm today, the Chicago Bar Association released their final rating for Judge E. Kenneth Wright Jr: “Not Recommended”

“…it was concerning to the Committee that a sitting Cook County judge has had a driver’s license for over 40 years that lists a Will County address…”

If you are in Cook County I can’t emphasize how helpful this judicial ballot guide is

This week, community engagement manager Charles Preston led a series of workshops with @buildchicago about judges and judicial elections. He also heard from West Side residents about what topics related to the courts they'd like to see more coverage of. https://t.co/e1ms2R1xX2

[Injustice Watch @injusticewatch]

Too often, stories about what happens in court focus on the extraordinary — the drama at the center of high-profile cases. We hear judges speak, but we don’t get a sense of what it’s like to be around them or a feel for their idiosyncrasies. https://t.co/WCCdZMKuEt

As a fellow Black RE investor/developer, this is an all too common experience for us. We get extremely low appraisals & no access to capital even when the project is more than viable and we have experience. All under the guise of "assurance" when it is plain systematic racism.

Chicago police are required to document every time they pull someone over. But @boltsmag and @injusticewatch found more than one-third of traffic stops are missing from official records. https://t.co/9YbLf1Ndig

[Bolts @boltsmag]

Chicago Police officers have secretly pulled over as many as 20,000 more drivers per month in the past year than they have reported publicly, in violation of a 2003 law requiring them to document every traffic stop. https://t.co/u78lXppzWP
