Chicago Mayor Lightfoot Loses Election; Candidates Backed by Police & Teacher Unions Head to Runoff

Chicago-based Democracy Now! co-host Juan Gonzalez gives an update on the Chicago mayoral race after incumbent Mayor Lori Lightfoot failed to advance to a runoff election. The two top candidates are now Paul Vallas, the former head of Chicago Public Schools, who has been endorsed by the local police union, and Brandon Johnson, an organizer with the Chicago Teachers Union. Gonzalez says the race pits progressives in the city against centrist and conservative forces and could be a bellwether of where the Democratic Party goes.
