In the race to lead America’s third-largest city, Paul Vallas, a former public schools executive, faced off against Brandon Johnson, a county commissioner and union organizer. The candidates were from opposite ideological ends of the Democratic Party, with Vallas calling for a crackdown on crime and Johnson seeking expanded social programs and new taxes. The incumbent, Mayor Lori Lightfoot, did not qualify or the runoff.
