‘It is a new day in our city’: Brandon Johnson is elected Chicago mayor
Chicago voters chose Brandon Johnson as the city’s new mayor Tuesday night, on the anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr.’s death.
Tuesday was a nail-biter of a night, ending with Cook County Commissioner Brandon Johnson beating former Chicago Public Schools CEO Paul Vallas in a narrow race for mayor. Current tallies show Johnson holding a lead of about 16,000 votes.
