by Cook County President Toni Preckwinkle in October 2021 for using “misogynistic, homophobic and obscene language” and verbally harassing another alderperson, a city staff member and his own constituents. Gardiner was stripped of his positions on four Democratic Party committees.
During the 2022 Democratic primary, Martinez, Villegas and Toro campaigned alongside John Catanzara, the president of the Fraternal Order of Police, Lodge 7, after he compared a requirement that Chicago police officers be vaccinated against COVID-19 to the Holocaust and resigned before he could be fired for making “obscene” and inflammatory social media posts between 2016 and 2018.
Toro ran unsuccessfully in June 2022 to represent Cook County’s 7th District on the Board of Commissioners, losing to incumbent Luis Arroyo Jr. and Anthony Quezada, who became the board’s first Democratic Socialist member. Quezada is a close ally of Ramirez-Rosa.
