Brandon Johnson is a Democratic member of the Cook County Board of Commissioners and is one of nine candidates running for Mayor of Chicago in the February 28th election. Johnson explains why he is the best choice for mayor and addresses what he would do to improve the city. In addition to violent crime and pending changes to cash bail from the 'SAFE-T Act', Johnson would have to work with the transition to an elected Chicago Public School Board which would eventually take control of the CPS away from the mayor's office.
The reporter round-table with Greg Hinz, Ray Long and Dave Stewart discuss the activity in the Chicago mayoral race including a new television commercial from the Lightfoot Campaign and some surprising results in a recent voter opinion poll showing Mayor Lightfoot coming in at third place behind Congressman Jesus “Chuy” Garcia and former Chicago Public Schools' CEO Paul Vallas.
