Chicago Mayoral Election: Brandon Johnson, Paul Vallas earn new endorsements ahead of runoff race
After campaigning hundreds of miles apart on Sunday, both candidates picked up endorsements on Monday.
Mayoral candidate Brandon Johnson hoping to tap into the standing and popularity of Illinois U.S. Rep. Danny Davis to help him win the votes he will need to beat Paul Vallas in the runoff election.
Davis, who supported Mayor Lori Lightfoot during the primary election, now switching his allegiance in the runoff to help get his fellow West Side resident Johnson elected as the next mayor.
"Brandon Johnson has the talent, the skill the ability to move around him all of the experts that he will need in every area," Davis said.
