We don’t need talkers right now. We need fighters.
And no matter how many times they knock me down, I’ll get back up and fight with you. Every. Single. Time.
Ori is a qualified and expert legal professional with a wide variety of experience. While we were previously concerned about a negative Bar Association rating on Ori's part, that concern pales in comparison to Dibler's FOP support.
#Endorsement #FlipFlop #Chicago #VoteForJudges
#GirlIGuess is revoking the endorsement of Elizabeth Christina Dibler for the 8th Subcircuit Gamrath Vacancy, due to her acceptance of the FOP endorsement. The Guide's longstanding rule is that FOP support is disqualifying for judges. We are instead endorsing Kathleen Cunniff Ori for this seat --->
I refer to every candidate I support by their first name, it makes readers relate to them more directly and candidates do it themselves. Leni, for example, runs as Leni. This is politics, not medicine or the legal profession. Its not disrespectful to call women by their names.

You're not wrong! Like I said, currently evaluating how we're approaching Federal races.
Yeah, I know. I dual-endorse about once a Guide (1% of all races covered overall), and its only when I can't justify a single endorsement. Didn't like the morass of politics & principles that led to my non-endorsement of Mike, & the same logic didn’t apply to Bushra. Changes coming in future Guides.
Nobody has any clue why DPI is just straight-up lying on those mailers but its going to backfire really hard, I'm guessing.
Oops! Weird formatting thing on the website back end. Great catch! Should be fixed now.
The 2026 Primary Edition of ##GirlIGuess is now live!! You can find the Guide and other election-related resources at girliguess.com. I don't want to even THINK about Congress again until November. Happy voting!!

For those who want to be in the know, check out this handy guide to how the Guide manages our Congressional endorsements! The numbers show that the majority of Democratic voters share our position! We MUST demand that our elected officials represent, at bare minimum, the views of the Electorate.
Many folks have asked, so we're answering! #GirlIGuess has handled Federal elections differently than local since October of 2023, and we're excited that we may be able to issue more than two Chicago/Cook County Congressional endorsements this year!
Because absolutely nothing else is happening in the news cycle right now, the first set of Girl, I Guess Congressional Power Rankings are here!! IL-8 is next week, then IL-9, and finally IL-2!

Although he is registered to vote in Will County, it is technically possible that the Pope has read #GirlIGuess because he voted in the 2018 and 2024 General Elections if the reports of his registration are accurate. This is Good For The Jews™️
