Elizabeth Rochford

It’s a big leap from Associate Judge to the Illinois Supreme Court, but Lake County Associate Judge Elizabeth Rochford wants to make it.

She filed papers last week to run in the Democratic Party primary with the Illinois State Board of Elections.

First appointed in 2012, she has handled divorce, probate, other civil and criminal cases.

Prior to her appointment she worked for the State’s Attorney’s Office before going out on her own.

She has served as President of the Lake County Bar Association.

Rochford is sixty years old.

  1. Please see article posted today (Jul 20) about 3-term Circuit Judge John Noverini’s entry into the Democratic primary for 2nd District Illinois Supreme Court.

    Both party’s primaries, and the General for this open seat, will be a big fight.

    Those of us who were here for the 2000 Republican primary for this seat have a glimpse of an idea what’s coming.

  2. Nobody else is going to say it BUT I AM GOING TO SAY IT!

    This woman looks more like a nurse than a judge.

    YOU KNOW IT’S TRUE! YOU KNOW IT’S TRUE!

    SHE LOOKS LIKE A NURSE!!!
