Chicago is just one day away from picking its next mayor: either Lori Lightfoot or Toni Preckwinkle. And voters in 15 wards will also be picking their alderman in the city’s runoff elections. Those are the wards where no one candidate got more than 50 percent of the vote in February.

Over  the last few weeks, we’ve been breaking down those aldermanic runoffs for you. Morning Shift wraps that coverage up with the 16th, 21st, and 30th wards.
