For the first time in 48 years, the name “Mell” won’t be on the ballot for Chicago alderman in the Northwest Side’s 33rd Ward.
Samie Martinez also was the chief of staff for former Ald. George Cardenas, 12th,But Patrick Hanlon, a spokesman for Iris Martinez, said in an emailed statement that Martinez “has spent decades of public service fighting against Democratic machine politics and standing up for the independence of doing what is right for her constituents. The inference that she is and operates as a Democratic machine person is farthest from the truth.
Asked whether he was aware that so many clerk employees helped circulate his petitions to be placed on the ballot for the Feb. 28 municipal election, Samie Martinez did not answer directly, but said, “Every person has a First Amendment right to be involved in the electoral process.
Martinez made getting out from under the Shakman oversight she inherited from Brown’s administration a priority of her first term, and celebrated its conclusion last month. Hanlon, Iris Martinez’s spokesman, said she is not a tool of the old Cook County Democratic Party machine, noting she won the race for clerk even though she didn’t have the party’s endorsement.
One of those who gathered petitions for Samie Martinez and who works for the clerk’s office is Carmen Navarro Gercone, who is the executive clerk for court operations.
