Mayor

Incumbent mayor Rahm Emanuel announced on September 4, 2018, that he would not run for re-election, reversing his previous announcement that he would run.[8] Fourteen candidates appeared on the ballot in the first round election on February 26, 2019. Since no candidates won 50% of the vote, the top two vote-getters advanced to a run-off election. These candidates were former President of the Chicago Police Board Lori Lightfoot and Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle. In the general election on April 2, 2019, Lightfoot defeated Preckwinkle, winning with 73.7% of the vote.
