Comm. Frank Aguilar (D-16) is being challenged for his seat on the Cook County Board of Commissioners this spring by two opponents in his party, and one of them is raising far more funds than he has.

The incumbent commissioner is a former Republican state representative who was appointed to the board in 2020, after changing his party affiliation about six or seven years earlier, to replace Comm. Jeffrey Tobolski. He was elected in 2022 to a full term.
