All voting systems used in the state are tested thoroughly before being approved. Illinois requires all machines be tested to state standards as well as to be tested by a federally (EAC) accredited voting system testing lab.

My assumption is that older voters didn't dropoff, they are just going to show up in the late arriving mail universe, which could skew a little older than normal, & because of that could be a little more Vallas friendly than you might traditionally expect

1) Vote by mail ballots hit mailboxes very late, I got mine on Friday 3/24, others got theirs on Monday 3/27.
2) A little surprising that at noon today turnout among younger voters was up while older voters were down.

Fewer than half of all ballots cast in the races for Chicago mayor/City Council/Police District council were cast on Election Day, new data from @ChicagoElection shows
CONTEXT: Mail ballots will be sent out starting Saturday; early voting starts Monday in all 50 wards

Willie Wilson blew the caps in this year's mayoral primary, enabling the fundraising frenzy that followed. Caps went back into place after the primary, prompting Vallas's move.

Vallas and Brandon Johnson are now able to accept unlimited contributions through the runoff.

Paul Vallas lends himself $100,100, triggering the "self-funding" loophole that lifts contribution caps.
$105,100 A1 to Vallas For Mayor

Good luck, all.

Chicago municipal elections for Mayor and Aldermen are in 6 days (2/28). In any race where no candidate gets a simple majority the top two go to a runoff in 5 weeks, on 04/04. However, as @ShiaKapos
points out, final results may not be immediately known.

— Results of Chicago mayor's race might not come election night.
— @JBPritzker's team at the ready if @JoeBiden doesn't run.
— READER DIGEST on wild run-ins with politicos. At the urinal and in a locker room. Don't worry, Rahm wore a towel! politi.co/3YOTo9U via @politico
So long as they're postmarked by election day, any late arriving mail ballots can be legally counted for another two weeks, until 3/14, and final results are certified on 3/21. For any very close races that short 5 week runoff may be compressed even further.
Former gubernatorial candidate Paul Schimpf has amended his D-1 to run for State's Attorney in Monroe County.

On January 1st, contribution limits which govern the amounts a political committee may receive will be adjusted upwards pursuant to 10 ILCS 5/9-8.5(g). Make sure you're aware of how this may impact your committees! #campaigndisclosure #campaignfinance
The State Board has issued some clarifying guidance on the "sponsoring entity" provision.

I first wrote about this little known provision back in 2016, and a few times since.
