Days before the election, Chicago's mayoral candidates are trying to do whatever it takes to make it into the top two — and the likely subsequent runoff.
Jason DeSanto, a veteran political speechwriter and debate strategist for members of Congress and multiple presidential campaigns, said candidates at this point are just trying to do whatever it takes to make it into the top two — and the likely subsequent runoff election.
DeSanto said Lightfoot is strongest placed to join Vallas in the runoff, although DeSanto admitted there remains a high degree of uncertainty in trying to forecast the race. He said what has impressed him about Lightfoot’s candidacy is her ability to maintain a base level of support, despite voter disapproval ratings as high as 70%.
DeSanto said Johnson, with the strong backing of the Chicago Teachers Union, also has a good shot of finishing in a top-two spot.
