And, we’re off to the races. Election Day finally arrives on Tuesday in Chicago.
The odds are high that no candidate will beat the odds and win the election outright with a majority of the votes. But by Tuesday night, we may be privy to whether the incumbent, Mayor Lori Lightfoot, will still have a chance to run the city again, or if two of her eight challengers (three of whom — Brandon Johnson, Paul Vallas and Jesus “Chuy” Garcia — are running, according to polls, in a statistical dead heat along with the mayor) will bump her out of the anticipated runoff election on April 4.
