The filing deadline for the March 17, 2020 Democratic primary is December 2, 2019.
The incumbent is Clerk Dorothy Brown, who on August 14, 2019 announced she was not running for re-election. See ABC News (Will Jones).
Because Democrats win general elections in Cook County & Republicans lose, the next Clerk will be decided in the Democratic primary.
The other candidates recognized by the Chicago media as running are:
- Richard Boykin, attorney and former Cook County Board Commissioner
- Michael Cabonargi (1), attorney and member of the Cook County Board of Review
- Iris Martinez, State Senator (Wikipedia)
- Jacob Meister, attorney and 2016 candidate for Clerk of the Court
Cabonargi has been slated (endorsed) by the Cook County Democratic Party.
(1) Did not link to the website I believe is Cabonargi's campaign site because Firefox flagged it as a security threat.
