“I have chosen to run for this office because for far too long the office of the clerk of cook county circuit court has had a pervading persona of deception, secrecy and investigations regarding corruption.”

“Let’s take an office stuck in yesterday, bring it into today and get it ready for tomorrow.”

“We cannot expect the current system to improve if we elect a machine politician, like those that have crippled so many other aspects of county government.”

“I pledge to end the neglect, mismanagement, and corruption that has plagued the Court Clerk’s office for decades and will usher in a new era rooted in government reforms.”

“The current state of the Clerk’s office is inexcusable. Taxpayers have been promised sweeping changes to the system for two decades. Millions of dollars later, the office is in worse shape than ever with Cook County lagging behind other court systems.”

“I am running because I am deeply troubled by the unprosecuted corruption in this county, the violence plaguing our communities, the deaths from the opioid drug epidemic, and a failure to enforce the laws.”

“The State’s Attorney needs to change, and I am the leader to restore integrity and order in the office.”

“In 2019, murders increased by nearly a third in Chicago’s toughest neighborhoods ... because Kim Foxx is playing catch and release with gunslingers.”

“Kim Foxx is a disaster. Its time for her to go. Her handling of the Jussie Smollett case is reason enough to make a change.”

“I’m running to enact real criminal justice reform, get after the gun crime epidemic, and get politics out of an office where it never belonged.”
