Please use this site to check your judges if you live in the State of Illinois, Cook County. If you do not reside in Cook County, please disregard this information. If you know individuals who do live in Cook County please remind them of the Primary Elections on Tuesday, June 28 if they care to vote. Did you read the bold print? It said 75 people are running for 29 judicial vacancies. You already know or should know by now that this is crucial! Don't let the wrong ones get in!
Unlike some folks, I do not vote for these Democratic or Republican judges just because I receive information on them in the mail saying, "punch this." If I don't know the people who are running for a judicial seat or haven't done my research on that person. I am not voting for them. A lot of those judges (yes red and blue) continue to unfairly use their power against melanated people. I am not in favor of that! This is why too many registered voters are apathetic when the subject of politics and voting comes around. I am sad to say, a majority of my family and friends are not interested in voting in this June 28, 2022, local Primary Election. There are some really decent public servants willing to serve the people. I wish I could persuade them to vote, but they are not.
These same judges, whether at the Appellate or at the Circuit Court level, won't even look at the evidence when it comes to black or melanated people. They will not stand up for what's right! They allow corruption and coercion instead! Why not overturn a conviction when you have evidence presented to you and will not be impartial or even look at it? Especially in criminal cases. The disparities are ridiculous whether it is traffic court or in a criminal case. When it comes to men of color being sentenced in a lot of criminal cases, they always show their true colors. Its's not blue or red, it's white! Then, they have the nerve to ask for our votes! Check them all the way out before you hand over your vote to them. Of course, not ALL, but way too many behave this way towards us as melanated folks not to take this primary or any election as very important. Local politics need your involvement. Judges know some of the attorneys or persecutors in their court do not have strong cases. How long are you going to allow lawyers to continue a case when you know it should be dismissed? If they do have a strong case, they never want to go to trial. They promote plea deals so that there is a felony mark on the defendant's life! While their men and boys get probation or a slap on the wrist. Another great reason to vote for or against judges is, they allow lawyers to play the continue game. They make the defendants remain in jail for 1-3 years instead of throwing bogus cases out or going to trial! They did this to Kalief Browder. They held him in jail for 3 horrible years because he allegedly stole a backpack. He didn't steal anything. I bet if he was white this would have never happened. No evidence was found to support their claim. Kalief was 16 years old! He wasn't convicted but they kept him in jail for 3 years just because they could. This needs to be illegal. This doesn't happen to any other group of people but melanated people. Judges are aware of these racist, bias tactics and do nothing, unless the complexion is a mirror image of them. Republicans and democrats are only concerned if it directly affects someone in their family, or friends. What is right about that? Nothing is! Do we have judges who care? Doesn't appear that way. If we did, why is it that every time we look up a black man is on the news for being wrongfully convicted. They spend all of those years in jail, innocent. The wicked part of it all is the entire team of people that works to get these people convicted from the JUDGES, lawyers, paralegals, secretaries and clerks know the truth. They all sit back and do nothing! What are the red or blue politicians doing about it? Nothing!
I am not pleased with the Democratic Party because when you look at black communities nothing has changed. What have they done? Pump more guns and drugs into the inner city? Ok besides that, what? Nothing! Not a damn thing. I am directly talking to melanated elected officials as well. Some of you guys are a disgrace. But I am not thrilled about the Republicans either. When you take the black vote for granted, you will lose it! Please use this website as a resource if you do not know any of the judges running or up for re-election. Voting for these judges is a very serious ordeal. Our families have been broken from the way a lot of these Republican and Democratic judges see us. When they see us, they
don't see human beings! If so, how could they have the same criminal cases with the same charges but give melanated people the harsher sentence. Check these politicians out and demand something for your vote. Some of them need to be voted out in lots of states, not just Illinois.
I do want to thank all of the freedom fighters. They are out there! I do want to articulate that we do have men and women that are doing their jobs as judges and elected officials righteously. May Yahweh continue to watch over them and use them in goodness and mercy. Also, I want to encourage those who sincerely use their white privilege to fight against the hate, Jim Crow of 2022, and racial injustice we as melanated people continue to go through in the name of liberty and justice for all, to keep on going.
