McCarthy is still leading in polls, there was a poll just released today that showed him leading (look it up).

He will continue to be the frontrunner if Preckwinkle doesn't run.

Extremely impressive to post three sentences and have two of them be flat-out wrong.

Raba Research (MoE ±4)
Gutiérrez: 21%
McCarthy: 18%
Preckwinkle: 16%
Lightfoot: 10%
Vallas: 10%
Summers: 4%

How dare Raba Research not include Dorothy Brown S
S means Sarcasm

I think Obama if they endorse I think they would endorse Prickenwitle as she was the one who started his political career in 96 even though they had a rift or else he would vote Meldoza

I think there is a decent chance he does not endorse, but if he does, I expect him to endorse Preckwinkle. Despite the rift, Obama endorsed her for re-election in 2018.

Obama and Mendoza don't have any sort of history.
or maybe Daley if Preckwinkle didn't run

Where can you watch results and when are they coming in?

Any major newspaper should have results. Polls close at 7 central, results shortly after that (though they're no longer allowed to pre-count early/absentee votes, so a little slower than we're used to). I'll personally be listening to WBEZ's coverage and maybe the Chicago Reader's livestream.

Just cast my vote for the BIG D!  Lets hope we get a Daley/Burke two-fer tonight - can’t let Chicago go the way of Detroit.
Why Daley? You could easily of voted for Gerry Chico or Garry McCarthy or Susana Meldoza

McCarthy has absolutely no chance.  Chico or Mendoza would be acceptable but why go for that when you have a legend on the ballot.
I was meming with McCarthy.

Any fault the city has is in part due to the corrupt Daley clan. A Rahm-lite candidate would be disastrous for the city considering the emigration of those with the means to the suburbs and sun belt, like in the aftermath of the Teacher Strike a few years ago.

The faults Chicago has would be much, much worse without the Daley/Rahm leadership over the past decades.  They’ve kept the city a place where business actually wants to invest in.
If you want a buinessman, vote Willie "Omar Medical Supplies" Wilson

Honestly I am more interested in seeing if Chicago's lone Republican on the city council survives this election.
How much did he or she win in the last election?

I dont like Lori’s transportation policy.  Its all about buses, not innovative.  I hate BRT.
So are you voting for Toni?

Some endorsements this morning:

Susana Mendoza for Lightfoot
Bobby Rush for Preckwinkle

Since there were stones being thrown re: former Daley backers going to Lightfoot, I’d note that Rush endorsed Daley in the first round.
Funny that Rush endorsed someone who endorsed Obama in 2000.

I think there’s nuance to it. Lightfoot and Pawar will both get huge margins on the north side. I expect Preckwinkle and MCE to win black wards - MCE with huge margins and narrower for Toni. Lightfoot and MCE will win police/fire hoods on the far NW/SW sides. Latinx wards are less clear - if I had to guess, I’d say Lightfoot and MCE, both with pretty narrow margins.

Overall, a loose correlation between support for Lori and Ameya.
I thought Ameya is mainly Preckwintle supporters and why is MCE doing well in the South side and Latino wards then.
