His application was "protested".

"On Friday, it was unclear where Stroger’s request stood. County officials hadn’t gotten final word from the state. If he loses his bid for benefits, Stroger has the option of appealing his case all the way to circuit court."

“When someone applies, their weekly check is based on how much money they’ve earned,” Rivara said. “Could be from one source, could be from multiple sources, but wages earned from doing the job [someone was] elected to don’t figure in.”

"In other words, it’s as if they didn’t work — or earn a dime."

According to the Unemployment Insurance Benefits Handbook handbook for IL. The following in under "uninsured work" on page 4. It sounds like he "may not" qualify...

"Some government work in special
job situations (elected officials)
or those hired to work for a short
period following a disaster may not
be covered."
