It is rare for such a close ally of a mayor to endorse their rival, though Lightfoot has also picked up endorsements from eight aldermen.
Chicago mayoral candidate Brandon Johnson speaks at a rally on Martin Luther King Jr. Day at the Chicago Teachers Union Center on Jan. 16, 2023.
But on Friday, Dowell threw her support behind Cook County Commissioner Brandon Johnson’s bid to unseat Lightfoot, a major defection from a high-ranking member of the mayor’s leadership team. Johnson unveiled the endorsement at a joint appearance in Dowell’s ward.“Brandon understands the approach necessary to face the many challenges facing Chicago,” Dowell said in a news release.
Political endorsements are largely symbolic and unimportant unless they are followed by major donations or devotions of time. But they often illustrate broader trends about a campaign.
