"Undecided: Cook County State's Attorney Primary Winner May Take Time to Determine"

The race for Cook County state’s attorney in the Democratic primary remains undecided as around 100,000 votes are yet to be counted, with 11 precincts still outstanding and a significant number of mail-in ballots awaiting processing. Both candidates, Eileen O’Neill Burke and Clayton Harris III, have refrained from declaring victory or conceding defeat, and the final outcome may not be determined until the end of the week or even later. Harris has gained ground in the city vote, while Burke initially led in the suburbs. The close race reflects a division in support across different areas of Chicago, with Harris showing strength in areas that previously favored progressive candidates.
