'All things are prepared for a citywide runoff,' Chicago Board of Elections Says. More live updates from Election Day here:
As long as ballots are postmarked by Feb. 28, and as long as they are received by the CBOE by March 14, the CBOE says. However, the CBOE has until March 21 to certify the results.
A new poll, conducted just days before Tuesday’s election, showed former Chicago Public Schools CEO Paul Vallas expanding his lead in the city’s mayoral race, with three candidates still battling it out to determine who could finish second and force an April runoff.Despite the 'highest' number of Pre-Election voting for any municipal election in the city, the Chicago Board of Elections during a 12 p.m. update said that Election Day turnout has been"a little sluggish.
"There's still plenty of time left in the day," Bever added."The sunshine is out now. But I will say, we're as hopeful as we were feeling at the Chicago Board of Elections that our turnout was going to look the same as it was in 2022, where about 25% of voters voted by mail. 25% of voters early voted, and 50% of voters still waited for Election Day."
