CHICAGO, Ill.—Paul Vallas, a moderate Democrat, and Brandon Johnson, a progressive Democrat, have been trying to get last-minute votes ahead of polls closing in the April 4 Chicago Mayoral runoff.

The winner will succeed Lori Lightfoot, who lost in the Feb. 28 primary following years of coming under fire on issues ranging from COVID to public safety.
