Lori Lightfoot is an American politician, attorney, and the current mayor of Chicago, Illinois. She was born on August 4, 1962, in Massillon, Ohio.

Before becoming the mayor of Chicago, Lightfoot served as a federal prosecutor in the Northern District of Illinois and later worked as a partner at the law firm of Mayer Brown.

Lightfoot was elected as the 56th mayor of Chicago in April 2019, becoming both the first African American woman and the first openly gay person to hold the office.

In addition to her work as mayor, Lightfoot has been involved in a number of community organizations and has served on various boards and commissions, including the Chicago Police Memorial Foundation and the Illinois State Criminal Justice Information Authority.

Lori Lightfoot Approval Rating

When Mayor Lori Lightfoot ran for the city’s top job in 2019, she did so as an outsider, garnering 70 per cent of the vote in a runoff election in which she pledged to ferret out corruption in City Hall.

Recent polls have shown a tight race between Lightfoot, former CPS CEO Paul Vallas, Rep. Jesús “Chuy” García and county Commissioner Brandon Johnson. If no candidate receives 50 per cent of the vote on Feb. 28, the top two vote-getters will head to a runoff election on April 4.

It is worth noting that approval ratings can change over time and may be influenced by various factors such as the mayor’s policies and actions, as well as broader political and social trends.
