1. Chicago is the biggest city of those listed for Mayor elections.

Lightfoot has low approval ratings and will struggle to get to the run off round. The primary is in February and General in April. All her challengers are Democrats. Some progressive and some would be considered by some to be more conservative.

2. I'm also keeping on the 14th Ward election.

A proxy fight between Chuy Garcia and Ed Burke.
