Judicial candidates are rated by the Illinois State Bar Association based on detailed information supplied by candidates, a background check by trained lawyers/investigators, and interviews of each candidate.  Ratings reflect the Illinois State Bar Association’s opinion of whether candidates have the necessary qualifications for judicial service and are not a reflection of the candidates’ abilities as lawyers.

Candidates who do not participate in the process are found “not qualified”.

The Abby Fishman Romanek/Larry Axelrood election result is wrong.

Thanks, this has been updated.

The number of winning NQ's is depressing.

Nothing is bolded.

Ronald,

All of the winners are in bold.

Not on my screen. I'll check the newspaper when I get home
