With his Primary win official, and with no Democrats filing to run against him, John Curry will be elected Cook County Judge in the 13th Judicial Subcircuit to fill the seat of retiring Judge Anthony Iosco.
“I am humbled and honored to have been nominated by my Party to serve as Cook County Judge. I look forward to being endorsed by the voters in the General Election in November,” said Curry. “Thank you for your faith in me!”
The Primary Election margin was very close, and as a result the campaign had to wait until the results were certified by the State Board of Elections and Curry’s opponent did not demand a recount or challenge the election results. When the deadline for challenges passed last month, John Curry officially declared victory in the Republican Primary, winning by 75 votes.

No candidates ran in the Democratic Primary in this race, and the deadline for established parties to file candidates passed on Monday with no Democrats filing to run in the 13th Judicial Subcircuit – Iosco Vacancy. This leaves John Curry as the only candidate for this vacancy on the General Election ballot in November.
Curry emphasized to the residents of the 13th Judicial Subcircuit: “As your Circuit Court Judge, I will serve you with dedication, integrity, and impartiality. I will work to improve the Cook County court system, and most importantly do my part to serve justice in fraud and corruption cases in our County.”
