2020 Judicial Screening Results SBC 2020 Results - Voters can take this sheet with them to polls. |
Dear Bar Member: The Suburban Bar Coalition, comprised of the Northwest Suburban, North Suburban, South Suburban, Southwest Bar, and West Suburban Bar Associations, has investigated and rated the Judges who are up for Retention in the November 3, 2020 election. The Coalition was started in 1987 for the purpose of pooling judicial evaluations on behalf of the millions of suburban Cook County residents. After that, it expanded its jurisdiction to bring Domestic Relations, Probate and Bar dates to the suburban courthouses. To be retained, a sitting judge must receive a 60% YES vote from those voting on the question: “Shall Judge be Retained?” You may vote on any or all of the judges listed in the section of the ballot. No judge is running against any other judge. The sole question is whether each judge should remain in his or her present office. The ratings are based on Legal Ability, Temperament, Impartiality, and Integrity. Help us inform voters about the qualifications of these Judges.
