Clayton Harris Concedes State’s Attorney’s Race (Chicago, IL) – Following is a statement from Clayton Harris III, candidate for Cook County State’s Attorney in the Democratic primary election:
“After months of organizing, meeting and talking with people from all across this county, and waiting for every vote to be counted, we’ve fallen a bit short of our goal. I want to congratulate Eileen O’Neill Burke on her victory.
“I am incredibly proud of the broad, diverse, grassroots coalition we built countywide with the vision of a criminal justice system that focuses on safety and justice. Where we keep every resident safe–no matter what neighborhood they live in, and where we do so in a just fashion.
“I said throughout this campaign that I would continue to push forward on the urgent work of criminal justice reform. That remains my commitment.
“From the bottom of my heart, I thank you, Cook County.”
