The Cook County Democratic Party threw its support behind former Illinois Treasurer Alexi Giannoulias in the race to succeed outgoing Secretary of State Jesse White during their Tuesday slating meeting.
The three Democrats also seeking the party’s endorsement —Chicago City Clerk Anna Valencia and Ald. David Moore (17th) Ald. Pat Dowell (3rd) — said they’d stay in the race, though Dowell said she’ll have to “assess how I’m going to move forward.”
U.S. Representative Jesús “Chuy” García and the 22nd Ward Independent Political Organization (IPO) officially endorsed Democrat Alexi Giannoulias today as the party’s nominee for Illinois Secretary of State in 2022.
