  • Chicago's Evolving City Council Chicago City Council Report #9
    Chicago’s Evolving City Council Chicago City Council Report #9 June 17, 2015 – March 29, 2017 Authored By: Dick Simpson Maureen Heffern Ponicki Allyson Nolde Thomas J. Gradel University of Illinois at Chicago Department of Political Science May 17, 2017 2 Since Mayor Rahm Emanuel and the new Chicago City Council were sworn in two years ago, there have been 67 divided roll call votes or roughly three per month. A divided roll call vote is not unanimous because at least one or more aldermen votes against the mayor and his administration. The rate of divided roll call votes – twice the rate in Emanuel’s first four year term – combined with an increase in the number of aldermen voting against the mayor – are indications that the aldermen are becoming more independent. Clearly, the city council is less of a predictable “rubber stamp” than it was during Mayor Richard M. Daley’s 22 years and Emanuel’s first four year term from 2011-2015. However, this movement away from an absolute rubber stamp is small and city council is only glacially evolving. The increase in aldermanic independence is confirmed by a downward trend in the vote agreement with the mayor, with only five aldermen voting with him 100% of the time and another 22 voting with him 90%. The number of aldermen voting with the mayor less than 90% of the time on divided votes has risen to 23 over the last two years. Aldermen are also more willing to produce their own legislation and proposed solutions to critical city problems than in the past rather than wait for, or to clear their proposals with, the 5th floor.

  • From Rubber Stamp to a Divided City Council Chicago City Council Report #11 June 12, 2019 – April 24, 2020
    From Rubber Stamp to a Divided City Council Chicago City Council Report #11 June 12, 2019 – April 24, 2020 Authored By: Dick Simpson Marco Rosaire Rossi Thomas J. Gradel University of Illinois at Chicago Department of Political Science April 28, 2020 The Chicago Municipal Elections of 2019 sent earthquake-like tremors through the Chicago political landscape. The biggest shock waves caused a major upset in the race for Mayor. Chicago voters rejected Toni Preckwinkle, President of the Cook County Board President and Chair of the Cook County Democratic Party. Instead they overwhelmingly elected former federal prosecutor Lori Lightfoot to be their new Mayor. Lightfoot is a black lesbian woman and was a partner in a major downtown law firm. While Lightfoot had been appointed head of the Police Board, she had never previously run for any political office. More startling was the fact that Lightfoot received 74 % of the vote and won all 50 Chicago's wards. In the same elections, Chicago voters shook up and rearranged the Chicago City Council. seven incumbent Aldermen lost their seats in either the initial or run-off elections. A total of 12 new council members were victorious and were sworn in on May 20, 2019 along with the new Mayor. The new aldermen included five Socialists, five women, three African Americans, five Latinos, two council members who identified as LGBT, and one conservative Democrat who formally identified as an Independent. Before, the victory parties and swearing-in ceremonies were completed, politically interested members of the general public, politicians, and the news media began speculating about how the relationship between the new Mayor and the new city council would play out.

  • Sentences of Incarceration Decline Sharply, Public Safety Improves
    Sentences of Incarceration Decline Sharply, Public Safety Improves During Kim Foxx’s Second Year in Office New data portal demonstrates benefit of criminal justice reform, transparency A Report from Community Partners by Reclaim Chicago, The People’s Lobby, and Chicago Appleseed Fund for Justice Release July 2019 INTRODUCTION The People’s Lobby, Reclaim Chicago, and Chicago Appleseed Fund for Justice have been tracking data on how prosecution is changing in Cook County since Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx’s first year in office. The People’s Lobby and Reclaim Chicago ran major voter contact operations to support State’s Attorney Foxx’s election on a decarceration platform and pledged to work to ensure that her vision of criminal justice reform happened once she took office. Chicago Appleseed has been advocating for criminal justice reform for decades and has a history of tracking data related to the Cook County court system. This is the fourth report in our series.1 In May 2019, State’s Attorney Foxx’s office took another major step forward in transparency by creating a user-friendly data portal, a dynamic dashboard showing how the office handles felony cases from initiations to sentencing in real time. This data portal helps make the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office one of the most transparent in the country. This report looks at four key metrics in the data that was recently released: number of sentences of incarceration, number of felony charges, number of guilty pleas, and number of cases dropped. We find that the use of prosecutorial discretion in the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office has led to a decrease in incarceration sentences.

  • Translating Movement Into the Role of Independent Political Organizing In
    TRANSLATING MOVEMENT INTO POWER The Role of Independent Political Organizing in the Racial Justice Victory Over Anita Alvarez in the Cook County State’s Attorney Race Reclaim Chicago, The People’s Lobby, SOUL (Southsiders Organized for Unity & Liberation), Center for Racial & Gender Equity, and Action Now SECTIONS I. Summary 2 II. Setting the Frame and Defining the Incumbent 3 III. Creating a Bigger, Bolder Contest 7 IV. Conclusions & Questions 15 V. Appendix 18 Translating Movement into Power • 1 I. SUMMARY Chicago community-based independent political organizations played a critical role in the successful campaign to defeat incumbent Cook County State’s Attorney Anita Alvarez, a staunch opponent of police and criminal justice reform, in the March 2016 Democratic primary. Black-led community organizations set the stage for the contest by publicly defining Alvarez as an opponent of accountability and reform, shaping the lead protagonist (challenger Kim Foxx) into a bold leader, and catapulting Foxx to a landslide victory over Alvarez. SOUL (Southsiders Organized for Unity & Liberation), The People’s Lobby, and Reclaim Chicago in particular led an inside-outside strategy over several years that built toward this historic and game-changing racial justice victory and, together with other allied community organizations, collectively made 310,000 calls/door knocks to contribute to a resounding victory on election night. The defeat of Alvarez and victory of Foxx represents a win for the Movement for Black Lives and signifies a political awakening for racial justice. It also represents a victory for the broader progressive movement, a victory that can teach key lessons about the combined power of high-profile movement activism and independent political organizing (often less visible) that can translate energy and intentions into large-scale electoral engagement and the exercise of community power.

  • How and Why Illinois Abolished the Death Penalty
    Minnesota Journal of Law & Inequality Volume 30 Issue 2 Article 2 December 2012 How and Why Illinois Abolished the Death Penalty Rob Warden Follow this and additional works at: https://lawandinequality.org/ Recommended Citation Rob Warden, How and Why Illinois Abolished the Death Penalty, 30(2) LAW & INEQ. 245 (2012). Available at: https://scholarship.law.umn.edu/lawineq/vol30/iss2/2 Minnesota Journal of Law & Inequality is published by the University of Minnesota Libraries Publishing. 245 How and Why Illinois Abolished the Death Penalty Rob Wardent Introduction The late J. Paul Getty had a formula for becoming wealthy: rise early, work late-and strike oil.' That is also the formula for abolishing the death penalty, or at least it is a formula-the one that worked in Illinois. When Governor Pat Quinn signed legislation ending capital punishment in Illinois on March 9, 2011, he tacitly acknowledged the early rising and late working that preceded the occasion. "Since our experience has shown that there is no way to design a perfect death penalty system, free from the numerous flaws that can lead to wrongful convictions or discriminatory treatment, I have concluded that the proper course of action is to abolish it." 2 The experience to which the governor referred was not something that dropped like a gentle rain from heaven upon the place beneath and seeped into his consciousness by osmosis. Rather, a cadre of public defenders, pro bono lawyers, journalists, academics, and assorted activists, devoted tens of thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands, of hours, over more than three decades, to the abolition movement.

Washington, Suite 500, Chicago, Illinois 60602 TEL (312) 603-0996 FAX (312) 603-9788 WEB cookcountyclerk.com Dear Friends: The March 15, 2016 Presidential Primary shattered modern-day records going back more than 25 years. The popularity of initiatives such as Online Voter Registration and Election Day Registration, as well as registration and voting for 17-year-olds, proved there is a great desire by voters to take part in the electoral process. This was the first presidential election to include Election Day Registration and voting by 17-year- olds who will be 18-years-old by the General Election – offerings we found to be very popular with suburban Cook County voters. This 2016 Presidential Primary Post-Election Report takes a comprehensive look at the voting totals, trends and statistics during the March primary throughout suburban Cook County. Below is a sample size of the standout primary numbers: • Voting before Election Day – by mail, or during early voting and grace period voting – accounted for 22 percent of all ballots cast in this election. • Early Voting set a new primary record with 113,641 ballots cast in a Presidential Primary. • More than 23,000 suburban Cook County voters took advantage of Election Day Registration. • Nearly 4,400 17-year-olds voted, accounting for 62 percent of the 7,085 who registered to vote. • Donald Trump won 25 of the 30 Suburban Cook County Townships, garnering his best total in Stickney Township, with 62.1 percent of the vote. • Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders were separated by just nine votes in Norwood Park Township (Clinton: 1,859; Sanders: 1,850).
