Race for 11th Ward Alderman

When he was elected in 2015, Ald. Patrick Daley Thompson became the latest Daley to head to work at City Hall, representing the South Side ward where the family has had a stronghold for decades. The 11th Ward includes all or parts of Bridgeport, Canaryville, University Village and East Pilsen. The area is home to Guaranteed Rate Field — home of the White Sox — and key commercial corridors including Halsted Street and Archer Avenue. Redeveloping the vacant Stock Yard Banks building in Canaryville remains a priority.

Thompson faces David Mihalyfy, a home health care aide, labor activist and writer.
