Posted February 27, 2019 10:00 pm
Lori Lightfoot got a pretty good bang for her buck, spending less than $17 a vote to grab her spot in the April runoff. That's less than third of what Toni Preckwinkle spent per vote, to win the other spot.
Who spent the most to get the least? Former Ald. Bob Fioretti. His 12th place finish cost more than $150 per vote. Lawyer John Kozlar spent the least, and wound up with about as much to show for it. He spent about 91 cents a vote and finished 13th in the 14-candidate field.
Nearly $29 million was poured into the mayoral race, which saw an astounding 14 candidates fight tooth and nail for the top two spots.
