@MattAbbatacola Yeh Matt Forward Progress hasn’t updated for two days.

@admcrlsn That’s why you are going to see less the 15% Voter turn out on 03/17/26

Illinois has been voting since February 5 — and they added additional polling places in Chicago a week ago — so we have a better-than-normal sense of who’s been showing up in Chicago. Turnout is highest in the North Lakefront (progressive & white, good for Stratton), the South Side (heavily Black, good for Stratton), downtown/and The Loop (white & wealthy, probably good for Raja). Turnout is — unsurprisingly for Chicago — lowest in heavily Latino areas on the Northwest and Southwest sides, but perhaps we’ll see an uptick on Tuesday.
