2023 Chicago aldermanic election

2023 Chicago aldermanic elections
	February 28, 2023 (first round); April 4, 2023 (second round)
All 50 seats in the Chicago City Council; 26 seats needed for a majority
Turnout	35.85% (first round)[1]

The 2023 Chicago aldermanic election took place in two rounds on February 28 and April 4, 2023,[2] to elect 50 alderpersons to the Chicago City Council. Each alderperson represents one of Chicago's 50 wards. The elections are non-partisan and use a two-round system where the top two finishers compete in a second-round runoff if no candidate receives more than 50% of the vote in the first round. The elections are part of the 2023 Chicago elections, which include elections for Mayor, City Clerk, and City Treasurer.

The membership of the City Council will feature at least 16 new members compared to the winners of the previous election. Twelve alderpersons are not running for re-election. Four additional members resigned during their term and have been replaced prior to the election. Media commentators and analysts have noted this unusually high number of retirements, comparing it to the broader "Great Resignation" phenomenon in the United States workforce.[3][4][5][6]

In the first round, candidates in 36 wards won outright majorities while elections in 14 wards proceeded to a runoff election. One incumbent lost in the first round and five others were forced into a runoff, where all five won.[7][1][8] Elected alderpersons took office on May 15, 2023.[9]

Background

Redistricting

In 2021, the City Council began debate over new ward map boundaries as part of the redistricting process following the 2020 United States census. The proposed map needed be approved by 41 aldermen before May 19, 2022, otherwise proposed maps would have been submitted to voters as a referendum in the June 2022 election.[10]

Members of the City Council fractured in support for two competing maps: one proposed by the Rules Committee and supported by the Black Caucus and one called the "Coalition Map" supported by the Latino Caucus.[11] The former map proposed 16 majority-Black wards and 14 majority-Latino wards while the latter map proposed 16 majority-Black wards and 15 majority-Latino wards. Later versions of both maps proposed the first ever majority-Asian American ward.[12] A resident group called Chicago Advisory Redistricting Commission also proposed its own map, but it did not receive support from any member of the council.[13] After months of debate, Rules Committee chair Michelle Harris announced on May 9, 2022, that a tentative deal had been reached with the support of 41 aldermen that would create 16 Black-majority wards, 14 Latino-majority wards, and one Asian American-majority ward.[10] The map was approved in a 43–7 vote on May 16, 2022.[14]
