Winnetka Democrats voted for Kim Foxx in 2016, but against her resoundingly in 2020. | New Trier Democrats
Winnetka Democrats will help choose who will be the next Cook County State's Attorney on Tuesday, heading to the polls to choose between lobbyist Clayton Harris, III and retired Cook County Judge Eileen O'Neill Burke.
Harris is backed by outgoing Cook County State's Attorney Kim Foxx, who won Winnetka in 2016 but lost it in 2020.
Harris, a lobbyist from Hyde Park, is a staunch Foxx backer, telling the Windy City Times last month that he "would give Kim Foxx an "A" with what she's done," promising to carry on Foxx policies if elected to office.
