Many folks have asked, so we're answering! #GirlIGuess has handled Federal elections differently than local since October of 2023, and we're excited that we may be able to issue more than two Chicago/Cook County Congressional endorsements this year!

TBH, I’m still upset the authors of #GirlIGuess seem unrepentant re: the impact of deciding not to endorse Kamala (bc progressives had to “send a message” to the DCCC).

The lesson? Be open & listen to progressives who’ve gone before you, rather than dismissing as generational/purity test failures.

Although he is registered to vote in Will County, it is technically possible that the Pope has read #GirlIGuess because he voted in the 2018 and 2024 General Elections if the reports of his registration are accurate. This is Good For The Jews™️

Is there something similar to @stephanieskora.bsky.social’s #girliguess guide for Philadelphia? It’s a life saver here because we have to vote for 4726 judges (only a slight exaggeration).

Have questions about something you read here? Ask me for sources. I've got em all. There's no need to exaggerate when it comes to Eileen O’Neill Burke; her record is bad enough on its own.
