Contributors Try To Drive Out Uncontested Illinois Supreme Court Justice
There’s only one Illinois Supreme Court Justice on the ballot this November. Some high-dollar contributors are hoping they can remove him from office–which has never happened before.
Justice Lloyd Karmeier fought hard to get on the state’s high court a decade ago. Business interests that want to make it harder to win big money in lawsuits helped get him there.
