You may be wondering: What’s my ward? What’s my precinct? WHAT’S A     PRECINCT? Chicago’s 50 wards are gerrymandered into completely illogical     geographies, and there’s nothing wrong with not knowing. Each ward is     subdivided into precincts. To vote early after October 21, or to vote on     Election Day, figure out your ward and precinct with              this handy tool          from the Chicago Board of Elections.
            Almost every judicial candidate and sitting judge is rated by one of the     local bar associations, and you can              find more information about those evaluations here. But ultimately, bar association rankings amount to lawyers’ opinions     about the judges they have to work with. For a more in-depth analysis the              Injustice Watch judicial election guide          is highly recommended. In addition to the bar rankings, it has information about which part of the court system the judge is in, any     problems with their rulings, controversies they’ve been involved in, and     their sentencing tendencies.
