Debra Shore—a two-term member of the Board of Commissioners of the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago ( MWRD )—announced her intention to run for re-election in the 2018 elections.

In announcing her intention to run again, Shore said, "March 22 is World Water Day, a fitting time to announce that I intend to run for another term on the Board of Commissioners of the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago ( MWRD ). The primary election is on March 20, 2018 and I am embarking on my re-election campaign. Will you row on with me?"

A press release cited her reason for running as "water matters," with Shore discussing everything from the situation involving the residents of Flint, Michigan, to her own experience with several initiatives in the Chicago area that have improved water quality.

Shore lives in Skokie with her wife, Kathleen Gillespie.
