A Coalition That Reflects Cook County
Endorsements aren’t just names on a list - they are a reflection of values, trust, and results.
This campaign is powered by a broad, diverse coalition that reflects the people, services, and communities that make Cook County work.
Democrats at Every Level
At a moment when our democratic values are under direct attack, Democrats know who is standing up for working families - and who has the experience to deliver.
That’s why support for Toni runs from the very top of the ticket to the streets and neighborhoods where Democratic organizing happens every day.
Governor JB Pritzker came out early to endorse Toni Preckwinkle’s re-election, recognizing her as a proven governing partner in a time of real consequence.
Toni Preckwinkle is a fierce champion for Cook County, a true partner in governance, and a good friend. With Donald Trump dismantling constitutional rights, defunding public safety, and slashing healthcare, Toni is a tested, successful leader we need standing up for working families.
That confidence is shared by grassroots Democrats who see Toni’s leadership up close and understand what it takes to govern effectively and win.
The Democratic Party of Oak Park and the 40th Ward Democrats have both endorsed Team Toni, citing her record of progressive leadership and her commitment to standing up against the Trump Administration’s attacks.
As the 40th Ward Democrats put it:
“Under her leadership, Cook County has delivered:
- A world-renowned Universal Basic Income program
- Cash-free bail
- Zero county-level property tax increases
- Balanced budgets year after year
Toni Preckwinkle is a progressive who knows how to get the work done.”
Frontline Workers for Critical Services
Working people know who shows up for them when it counts.
That’s why labor organizations representing tens of thousands of workers are backing Team Toni.
The Chicago Federation of Labor and AFSCME Council 31 represent the public servants who keep Cook County running — in health care, public safety, education, and essential services.
CFL President Bob Reiter said it plainly:
Toni Preckwinkle is a champion for working people. She has a proven record of protecting the healthcare, infrastructure, and services Cook County families rely on — and she delivers on those investments every day.
Advocates Who Turn Values Into Action
Issue-based organizations endorse records, not rhetoric.
That’s why groups like Better Streets Chicago and Equality Illinois are standing with Toni - recognizing her leadership on equitable transit, mobility, and LGBTQ+ rights across Illinois.

Progressive Voices Highlight the Stakes
Girl, I Guess, the nation’s largest independent progressive voter guide, endorsed Toni Preckwinkle for re-election, highlighting both her progressive legacy and the urgency of defeating a MAGA-aligned opponent with ties to Donald Trump.
The Contrast Couldn’t Be Clearer
While Team Toni continues to build a broad, people-powered coalition, our opponent is a downtown alderman, backed by wealthy developers, who has long-standing ties to Donald Trump.
And he’s spending big to spread misinformation so he doesn’t have to answer for that
