More than a week after the April 4th election, the two-term alderman thanked supporters and said he’s excited about representing the West Side ward, which counts Mayor-elect Brandon Johnson as a resident.
Ald. Chris Taliaferro held a slight lead Tuesday night over challenger CB Johnson, with less than 100 votes separating the two candidates and more than 1,600 mail-in ballots yet to be counted.
Austin residents need to make the choices in two critical races: Who should be Chicago’s next mayor, and who should represent the 29th Ward in the Chicago City Council? The last day to vote is Tuesday, April 4th.
The Chicago Board of Election Commissions will continue this week to make decisions about which 28th and 29th Ward candidates are eligible for the election.
