So this is expected to be a tough race. 12-year incumbent John Stroger (

http://www.co.cook.il.us/...).
I ask you in poll form, Cook County Kossacks, for whom will you be voting?
I'll be voting for Claypool. He showed at the Park District that he can clean out corruption and patronage and deliver quality government services without raising taxes which is exactly what the county needs. Stroger's a good guy, but the corruption and horrible delivery of county services has been just too much.
