“Chuy Garcia is the frontrunner today in the race for Chicago mayor, leading Mayor Lori Lightfoot by 7 points in the first round and 31 points in the second.'

The poll was conducted via multi-modal phone and text-to-web survey, with 75% or responses coming via cell phone. The margin of error was plus or minus 3.7 percentage points.

All of the other candidates polled, which included Ald. Raymond Lopez and former Gov. Pat Quinn who did not launch bids for mayor, registered less than 10% support. According to the poll, 14% of voters are undecided. In a runoff, Garcia would win 55% of the vote and handily defeat Lightfoot, who would win just 25%, according to the poll. In a head-to-head contest, García is tied with Lightfoot among Black voters, leads by 52 percentage points among White voters and by 40 percentage points among Latino voters, according to the poll.

First elected in 2018 to represent Illinois’ 4th Congressional District and reelected last month, García is seen favorably by a majority of Black, Latino and White voters, including those who describe themselves as progressive Democrats and moderate or conservative Democrats, according to the poll.
