March 1, 2012: Rochford vacancy: Our endorsement goes to Judge Andrea Schleifer, who was found "well qualified" by the Council of Lawyers. She hears custody and child-support cases. The fact that when she was 11 years old she walked nearly five miles to get an autograph from baseball Hall of Famer "Duke" Snider has absolutely nothing to do with the law ... but is still impressive. There are four other candidates.
Judge Schleifer has been given the given highest rating by the North Suburban Bar Association. To compare other bar association ratings of candidates in the 12th subcircuit race, visit VoteForJudges.org
