Otter: This looks easy

Vote of Many Colors

Although Cook County’s 9th Judicial Subcircuit has a sizable Asian population, its diversity meant Sandra Otaka had to reach other voters to win one of its two open judgeships.

Note: Does not include eight precincts that lie partially in other subcircuits, and another 12 for which no data were available. Altogether, the sub-circuit includes 347 precincts.
