Who's challenging whom for Chicago mayor?

The election season bloodsport known as petition objections began this week with accusations flying and rare challenges to a sitting Chicago mayor. Why it matters: This quadrennial process could greatly narrow the field of mayoral and aldermanic candidates. But it also reflects a legacy of complicated rules that appear designed to favor those with established campaign structures, making the challenges to Mayor Brandon Johnson all the more noteworthy. How it works: To enter the race, mayoral candidates need 12,500 valid signatures from registered voters who have not signed another mayoral candidate's petition. That's way more than New York (3,750) and Los Angeles (500). The big picture: Objectors have filed challenges against 12 of the 16 people seeking mayoral candidacy and at least eight current members of the Chicago City Council. The person filing the challenge often declines to reveal whether a candidate has backed the effort. Former State Sen. Rickey Hendon speaks at the Chicago Board of Elections Monday. Photo: Monica Eng/Axios The intrigue: Johnson is facing two challenges. One is led by former state Sen. Rickey Hendon, who the Sun-Times reports is working for candidate Willie Wilson . The other is from conservative group Chicago Flips Red, advised by

A political musical chairs game

Happy Veterans Day, Illinois. Today, and every day, we’re grateful to those who served. TOP TALKER WHAT IF? One big political move could trigger a chain reaction of vacancies in Illinois. From the governor’s mansion to City Hall and the county board, here’s how succession dominoes could fall. Starting at the top: If Gov. JB Pritzker were to run and win the presidency, he would resign as Illinois’ top elected official and incoming Lt. Gov. Christian Mitchell would take over as governor. No special election is required under the Illinois Constitution. That’s what happened when former Lt. Gov. Pat Quinn became governor in 2009 after then-Gov. Rod Blagojevich was removed from office. If Mitchell moves into the governor’s office, his former office would “remain vacant until the end of the term,” per the Illinois Constitution. The calendar matters: If Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias wins the Chicago mayor’s race next year, the governor would appoint someone to fill the seat, and a 28-month calculation would kick in: Under the Illinois Election Code , if more than 28 months remain in Giannoulias’ term, voters would choose a successor at the next general election. Otherwise, an appointee would serve out the term.

From Netflix to Skokie’s North Shore Center with writer, speaker and satirist Fran Lebowitz
