The Vallas for Mayor campaign is releasing its first new television ad of the runoff, featuring popular former Secretary of State Jesse White asking voters to join him in supporting Paul Vallas. In the ad, White says that “Paul Vallas Will Be a Mayor for All Chicagoans,” that he has the experience needed to lead the city, and that he will focus on reducing crime and making all communities safer.

“I’ve known Jesse White for over 40 years and there is no one I would rather have speaking directly to the voters about our campaign and my pledge to be a Mayor for all Chicagoans,” said Vallas. “We’re building a broad, diverse coalition of people from all walks of life who want to see our city focus on reducing crime, improving public education and putting Chicago back on the right track.”
