Welcome to The Deep Dish—Ballotpedia's in-depth coverage of Chicago's 2019 elections.

Chicago, the nation's third-largest city by population, held nonpartisan elections for mayor, all 50 city council seats, treasurer, and city clerk on February 26, 2019. A runoff election was held on April 2 for races in which no candidates received more than 50 percent of the vote.

The filing deadline was November 26. Interested candidates for mayor, city clerk, and treasurer needed to submit 12,500 valid signatures from registered Chicago voters; city council candidates needed to submit 473 valid signatures from voters within the wards they sought to represent.

Ballotpedia's The Deep Dish ran from November 2018 to April 2019. You can review those archived issues below.
