Polls open today

Today the people of Chicago will elect not only their Aldermen, but also a mayor, clerk and treasurer. In addition in 37 wards there is a referendum on whether or not Chicago should have an elected school board.

Many of you probably early voted already and for those of us who haven't then find your local polling place here. Polls are open from 6 AM to 7 PM today. If you have no idea who's on the ballot before you hit the ballot box go here again, input your information and look for a sample ballot tab.

Or you can also call the Chicago Board of Elections at 312.269.7900

I want to also refer to the Sixth Ward's 2015 page for candidates running for Alderman in the 9th ward. Of course over there we're also covering wards 6 & 21, but here we're more concerned about the 9th ward.

Hopefully I will be able to post election results here for 9th ward alderman candidate.

Please vote today and have a direct effect on the future of our communities for the next four years.
