Mayor Brandon Johnson’s administration filed notice Monday they plan to appeal a judge’s ruling against his Bring Chicago Home referendum and he said he was optimistic it would pass.
Asha Ransby-Sporn, Bring Chicago Home deputy campaign director, speaks to supporters of the initiative at Build Coffee in Chicago, Feb. 25, 2024. As Mayor Brandon Johnson’s administration moved forward with plans to appeal a judge’s ruling against his Bring Chicago Home referendum, he called on the public to still turn out and vote for it and said he was “optimistic” supporters would eventually prevail in court.
The Chicago Board of Election Commissioners — the main defendant in the case — will decide whether to appeal Tuesday, Bever said. Real estate groups fought that intervention, arguing the city was aware of the suit and its schedule from the start and that they missed a chance to intervene in late January, when the board tried to move the case to a different court. Speed was key in this case, they argued, so that voters would know what votes would be counted by primary day on March 19.
In the meantime, backers of the question took to social media over the weekend to urge a yes vote and continued canvassing in person.With three weeks to go until primary day and thousands of mail ballots en route to primary voters, Democratic candidates in the open race for Cook County state’s attorney have released dueling television ads.
O’Neill Burke made it up on TV three weeks earlier than Harris, who announced his first on-air ads Monday.
