Friends to Elect Kenneth Wright for Circuit Court Judge of the 21st Judicial Circuit of Kankakee and Iroquois Counties is raising money for his campaign for judge. Kenneth is a man of the people and believes in justice for all people. Help make history by electing Kenneth E. Wright as the FIRST, minority to be ELECTED as CIRCUIT COURT JUDGE in the county!
In the nearly 160 years of Kankakee County, we have never elected a person of color as a Circuit Judge. The heavily Republican leaning residents have historically voted for former prosecutors to hold that position, even though it appears that most of the people appearing on the other side of the bench are people of color. Since 1964 only two Democrats has won the honor of serving as a Circuit Judge in Kankakee County. Justice is more than prosecution.
Equally important is the defense of the constitutional rights and freedoms of all people, regardless of their political party, where they are from and who they know. I strongly believe that our justice system should be inclusive and works best by reflecting the diverse country we live in.
Running as a minority Democratic nominee, my candidacy, and campaign is a direct attempt to break the "typical" and modernize the bench.
