Episode 25: IL Elections with State Sen. Iris Martinez & Cook County Circuit Court Judge Candidates

It's an election-themed episode of the Paseo Podcast, so we invited a number of guests running for local office here in Illinois on Tuesday, March 17. We welcome State Senator and candidate for Clerk of the Cook County Circuit Court, Iris Martinez. We're going to discuss her campaign, what inspired her to run for elected office, & how she has navigated the male-dominated world of politics. After that, I sit down with Cook County Circuit Court Judge candidates, Araceli Reyes De La Cruz, Laura Ayala-Gonzalez, and Judge, Teresa Molina, to discuss their races, representation in the judicial system, and a whole lot more.
