Description

The Cook County State’s Attorney is the county’s top prosecutor, and the office has become one of the most scrutinized over the last decade. That’s why when Kim Foxx announced last spring she wouldn’t seek a third term, host Jacoby Cochran and Tribune reporter A.D. Quig expected more fanfare heading into the March 19 primary. But only two Democrats have emerged to replace Foxx, and they haven’t come out swinging as hard as you might expect. Quig breaks down who the candidates are and why the race is still important to watch.
